PicLens is an awesome browser extension that turns photos or images from popular sites in to immersive slide shows has added support for Youtube videos. I covered Piclens in last june, and this is one of the popular article in this blog.
PicLens supports Flickr, Photobucket, Picasa Web Albums, Fotki, FotoTime, deviantART, Smugmug, Facebook, MySpace, Bebo, Hi5, Friendster, Google Images, Yahoo Images, Ask Images, Live Images, AOL Images, Freewebs, Lightroom Galleries. Piclens can turn any photos or images from any site that media RSS in to full screen slideshows.
To turn youtube videos in to a 3D wall select Youtube from the piclens search bar and type keywords for youtube search. Double click on any video to play that video. You can see videos with out any distraction in a nice interface. If you have never used piclens give it a try.
Thanks so much for blogging about our new PicLens release, with support for YouTube videos.
In case your readers are interested, here’s a link to our demo video that shows how PicLens can transform your YouTube experience.

i will also try this with youtube . currently i am using it with firefox as a plugin
I like the PicLens 3D Wall, a lot! This will definitely enhance the YouTube video browsing experience. Am going to download Piclens and play around with it a bit. Thanks for the tip.
If you like Piclens, and if you’re also a movie buff, here’s a freeware that uses Piclens 3D wall to display your DVD collection, your favorite movies & series, your favorite actors, etc…
It also uses the latest PicLens feature to find videos on YouTube (trailers, interviews, making of, alternate scenes, spoofs, etc…)

I will look in to it
PicLens is already a fantastic plugin. With Youtube support, I think it will continue to garner legions of loyal fans.
YouTubeRobot.com today announces YouTube Robot 2.0, a tool that enables you to download video from YouTube.com onto your PC, convert it to various formats to watch it when you are on the road on mobile devices like mobile phone, iPod, iPhone, Pocket PC, PSP, or Zune.
YouTube Robot allows you to search for videos using keywords or browse video by category, author, channel, language, tags, etc. When you find something noteworthy, you can preview the video right in YouTube Robot and then download it onto the hard disk drive. The speed, at which you will be downloading, is very high: up to 5 times faster than other software when you download a single file and up to 4 times faster when you download multiple files at a time.
Manual download is not the only option with YouTube Robot. You may as well schedule the download and conversion tasks to be executed automatically, even when you are not around. Downloading is followed by conversion to the format of your choice and uploading videos to a mobile device (if needed). For example, you can plug in iPod, select the video, go to bed, and when you wake up next morning, your iPod will be ready to play new YouTube videos.
