Youtube New UI

 

It seems Google has been quietly working on a new look for YouTube. And before they release it officially to everyone, they want to give you a sneak peak at it.


So this is what you have to do. First of all, this only works best on Chrome and Firefox. On IE9 it goes back to the old look after a browser restart and on Safari and Opera it does not seem to work at all. The following are the steps to get it working on your browser.

 

Youtube New UI

 

  • Get to YouTube.com
  • In Chrome, press Ctrl+Shift+J or right click on page and select Inspect element and click on the Console tab
  • In Firefox, press Ctrl+Shift+K or go to the menu on top > Web developer > Web console
  • In Internet Explorer 9, press F12 and click on Console tab
  • Copy-paste the following in the console:  document.cookie="VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE=ST1Ti53r4fU";
  • Hit Enter and reload the page.
