There is a new feature available for your YouTube videos. Now you can add annotations to your YouTube videos. Video Annotations are a new way for you to add interactive commentary to your videos.
You may make use of these annotations to:
- Add background information about the video.
- Create stories with multiple possibilities (viewers click to choose the next scene)
- Link to related YouTube videos, channels, or search results from within a video
- or simply all of the above!. Great!.
You control what the annotations say, where they appear on the video, and when they appear and disappear.
Video annotations are available now as a "beta" feature. Annotations, once published, are shown by default. You can turn them off while watching a video through the player menu—just click the button on the bottom right of the video player.
Get more information about YouTube annotation from here or simply go to YouTube now and start making your own annotations.
I hope they add the ability to add links to other websites in our videos.
I’ve heard about this new feature, but have not tried it myself. I think this is a good improvement so now we’re not only watching on Youtube but also add some words as additional info behind the movie.
Thanks to your tips.
