Youtube, no doubt has become an irreplaceable online library for videos. With the rising popularity of Youtube, many people are developing different tools that help to edit, crop, convert, download and optimize the Youtube videos with very few clicks. Out of several hundred of such tools, I'd like to showcase a few useful tools that were regularly used by many (including me).
- ListentoYoutube: It helps to convert Youtube Videos to Mp3 audio file.
- YtDub: An online resource to dub one youtube video with another video. You can also use this tool to replace background of an existing video with another.
- You3B: Lets you watch 3 different Youtube videos at the same time on a single webpage.
- YoutubeTime: If you like to send a video to your friend and want him to watch it from a specific time frame, then this tool will come handy for you. Just choose the start time of the actual Youtube video and an URL is automatically generated for you. Clicking on that URL will let you watch the video straight from the time you specified without having to watch it from the beginning.
