The Twitter maddness that is sweeping the nation in every imaginable fieldhas claimed another victim: YouTube. It seems that Twitter is sweeping across the nation picking up individuals and corporations left and right, eventually claiming the entire world and filling it full of tweeting fools, ruining relationships and other apocalypitc events because of the national tweeting obcession…. Next time you visit YouTube look at the sharing options below the video, you will now notice a handy little Twitter button (above) underneath every video window right along with all of the other “share” buttons such as MySpace and Facebook.

Upon clicking on the Twitter button you are redirected to the Twitter homepage to log in to your account. The tweet for the video is auto generated and states “check out this video” followed by a title and URL for the person you’re sharing with to follow (above). (Don’t worry, even though the YouTube URL isn’t shortened, it is short none the less so it should fit in your little Tweet). Next feature up on the drawing board, (should be anyway) is the ability to imbed videos directly into Twitter streams just like Facebook and MySpace. But hey, it’s progress people…good progress at that. So I can’t complain. Among other improvements regarding YouTube,the mobile site has been tweaked a tad as to make uploading that video of your friend car surfing all the more easier. Ahhh, the simple things in life…
