About This Page
- These pages started as experiments in coming up with a light-weight, clutter-free interface for viewing videos found on YouTube.
- Some of these may not work on some devices or some web browsers, but all except [F] work using the default browser on an iPad.
About the Various Ways to Play the YouTube Videos
Some aren't listed here. Just try them out.
- [B] = BumpBox - demo
- Similar to [C] but no resizing to fit the screen.

- [C] = CeeBox - demo
- * My favorite on the iPad and I also often use it on a computer.
This pops up the video within the same page, along with "prev" and "next" navigation. The "next" navigation means that you can continue watching the series without returning to the main page.

You get the lists as I formatted them, but you get direct links to the pages on YouTube that have the videos.
