Also do the "x more results since you started searching. Refresh to see them." note if new comments are posted while watching the video... PS. Why is Google so inaccessable? I had to search all of YouTube and their blog and there is no way to comment anonymously... Could YouTube add a feature like on Twitter Search to refresh the comments without refreshing the page.

Also do the “x more results since you started searching. Refresh to see them.” note if new comments are posted while watching the video…

Maybe we could get Patrick Stewart or James Earl Jones? This would seriously help with incidents of "Internet rage" caused by reading idiotic comments.

They'd be mistaken; this is a great example of an innovation that produces not only public value, but money as well. However, it would never see the light of day, or would only feed pointless lawsuits. It's simply too good for people to leave it alone.

This may sound harsh, especially for non-native speakers of English, but wouldn't it be great if YouTube also included an obligatory spell-check on comments? No need for examples i'm sure but anyway: "hehe im the first hwo viwed this video but the panas are cute". The video was about pandas in case you hadn't guessed!

In the slang, other terminology of the hip subcultures and music sections of youtube.. Where some comments where hard enough to decipher in text terms.

A user with an average rating of -5 (or whatever) will initiate the playback of their comments automatically before it is posted. Once a user reaches another milestone of -10, a simple message indicating the user is a douchebag could be displayed so that they are self aware." This is definitely a feature that should be implemented. :D I saw this in the comments of one of the featured videos on Youtube:

“@Andrew

I am not sure I would want text read to me personally, but for those who have disabilities it would certainly help. That comic is brilliant.
