What do you think about the new YouTube layout?

Personally, I'm not a fan..but then again...maybe it just takes some getting used to...

The video pages look like they haven't downloaded completely. I understand they want to make it less cluttered, but it's a little hard to navigate.

At first I was really excited to see less clutter, but soon I found that that's about all it is.
I wish they had made it look less cluttered in a way that is not clinical.
Right now it feels like browsing in one of those cheap-ish supermarkets where the lights are neon white.

Not a big fan yet. I like the cleaner look but am annoyed that it takes an extra click to embed videos.

The layout is simple, but not effective and the UI is worst. Organization of things, related videos are not done properly, maybe U-Too-b need to redesign it again. it's not google.com, it's youtube.com

It's horrible and a step backwards in terms of ease of use. In an effort to remove clutter and simplify their layout they somehow managed to make it seem even for disorganized and confusing.

I was a little confused about embedding videos, but soon worked it out. The sizes of embedded videos are easier to understand. I was annoyed watching one with sub-titles as they were covered with adsense advertising! I haven't yet worked out who gets the cash from that advertising, the maker of the video or the website owner that embeds it?
