Quickview for YouTube

SUMMARY

Watch videos without leaving your YouTube subscriptions feed page, and possibly without ever clicking.

Hover over thumbnails in your feed page to view that video. How about thumbnails at the side of a video page? That works too!

Q: What's better than a nice subscriptions feed page that you can scroll forever?
A: A page where you can scroll forever AND watch videos.

P.S. This is open-source at https://github.com/ngzhian/quickview
