YouTube Options Extension

The YouTube Options extension for Google Chrome is a great tool I discovered when I was trying to find a way to get rid of the comments on certain YouTube videos my kids were watching. Often times they would look up a harmless video on something that they were interested in, usually Skylanders or the Plants vs. Zombies game, and there would be a bunch of comments that contained language that would make a pirate blush! 

Definitely not what I want my sons reading.

Not only does the extension remove the suggested videos that usually appear to the right, but the description and any comments are automatically filtered as well. Here are a few of the features it offers:

* Hides comments and video description. (You can click below the video to see the description)
* Disables Ads on the video page.
* Disables the video scroll of suggested videos on the right.
* Disables Ads at the beginning of videos.
* Disables Ads in the video as well as annotations and auto play.

When you install the YouTube Options extension, you will see an immediate difference in your viewing experience on YouTube. You can customize the extensions settings to further improve your viewing experience.
