YouTube redesign: follow the Cosmic Panda

YouTube goes over to the dark side with slick new design

YouTube’s new redesign experiment follows last week’s Gmail and Calendar makeover but Cosmic Panda (for that is what it has been dubbed) is more than just an easy-to-navigate design. It’s a darker and more polished YouTube than the one we’ve come to waste hours of our lives on. If you’re browsing with Google Chrome, you can watch videos while searching for the next one and Google has also revamped both the Channel and Playlist pages of its video-sharing site. No Google Plus just yet, but it we bet it won’t be long.

About

I'm fascinated by all things tech, but if you were going to leave me on a desert island, I'd probably ask for my Nintendo Switch, a drone, and a pair of noise-cancelling cans to block out the relentless seagull racket. When I'm not on Stuff duty you'll probably find me subscribing to too many podcasts, playing too many video games, or telling anyone who will listen that Spurs are going to win a trophy this season.
