Adapted You Tube Player


Last weekend my father asked me how to stop a You Tube video once it was playing, a question that may seem obvious to a digital native but certainly isn't obvious to everyone.

The One Switch blog just featured a You Tube player with adapted buttons for those who need them called Easy You Tube. I doubt it will solve school filter issues, but it may solve some usability issues and will certainly make You Tube more accessible to touch screen users.

    Although we can access you tube at our F.E college in the UK we have trouble with buffering . The other problem is we don't have Java script enabled. There are so many good things becoming available and its frustrating when you can't access them with the students.
