YouTube Improves YouTube Mobile Version

Jan 24, 2008 at 3:50pm ET by Barry Schwartz

A New And Improved YouTube For Mobile from the YouTube Blog announces that they have improved their mobile version at m.youtube.com. The new features include:

  • Tens of millions of added videos
  • Community features now available on the mobile version
  • Mobile phone uploads available within moments
  • YouTube for Mobile is available and localized for the UK, Italy, France, Spain, Netherlands, Poland, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, Australia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, New Zealand, Germany, and Russia

Is your mobile phone supported? Depends on if you support RTSP streaming and need a data package on your device. In addition, YouTube released a YouTube for Mobile downloadable application available for Sony Ericsson k800 and w880, and for Nokia e65, n95, n73, 6110 navigator, and 6120 classic.

YouTube released version one of their Mobile site in June of last year. Want to see how it works? I made a little video of it in action on my iPhone. Yes, iPhones already have a built in YouTube player - but it shows some of the m.youtube.com features anyway. Here it is:

YouTube themselves made a more detailed video of how it works:

Again, check out the new YouTube Mobile at m.youtube.com.
