Well YouTube now has something better for couch surfers. Whether you want to watch YouTube videos on TV or on your desktop or laptop. This is the Leanback version of YouTube. All you need to do is to open www.YouTube.com/leanback on your device and sit a few feet away. Keep the keyboard with you and you will be able to control the videos with the arrow keys. 


Once you open Leanback it starts playing the most popular videos on YouTube that is if you are not logged in. If you have logged in to YouTube it will start playing your favorite videos. Or videos based on your preferences. Ideal for watching on TV. Check it out now. Controls are really easy - arrow keys need to be used.


Videos will keep playing one after the other just like what happens on cable TV. You can also hook up your Facebook account to leanback which offers effortless sharing of videos.
