YouTube now optimised for TV screen through XL launch

LONDON - Google has launched a new version of YouTube that has been optimised for watching YouTube videos on any large screen TV.

YouTube XL offers large text, simplified navigation and a continuous play feature that lets users search for a topic on YouTube and then press play once to watch all of the videos on that topic sequentially.

A universal remote control and even some mobile phones can be used to navigate through the videos.

Google said it takes just a few clicks to move from one video to the next.

Last January, Google launched a video website especially for internet users who wanted to access videos through their Sony PS3 and Nintendo Wii game consoles.
