OK, this has got to stop! It's ridiculous!
For the past two nights in a row, YouTube has been unable to load on my computer. I know I know, they warned me: site maintenance was scheduled.
But in times past, I was able to still get onto the site during this maintenance time. But lately: phew!
YouTube should warn us about the time left and the severity of these maintenance sessions... They are annoying.
YouTube should redirect traffic to a status page of the maintenance, so everyone isn't left hanging.
A side note: why does the title of the YouTube page come up, but the rest of the page never loads? hmmm....

YouTube's HTML Font Error
Before clicking "more info"
After clicking "more info"
YouTube has some HTML code problems, and this is a perfect example. The summarized description of the video, before you press "more info" shows ♥ But then when you press it, it turns into ♥.

Homepage Blooper on Largest Video-sharing Webpage
Today, April 14, 2009, the "Videos being watched right now..." section on the YouTube homepage was messing up. A giant red X appeared in its place. Refreshing it did no good. This was not an image, it was an Adobe Flash Player thing.

Odd CBS YouTube Video - Advertisement and Loading?
First it says "Please wait. Loading your video..."And then it says "Advertisement: Your video will start in 1 seconds." Notice the advertisement bars?The first bar starts immediately, not after a few seconds as is normal with other partner videos. Also curious, there is no advertising on this video (or to the right of it). You can see it for yourself at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kL-CpaLWGuk.
My theory is that this is an experiment CBS is doing with YouTube so that CBS can have more control over data collecting from its audience.
