Those of you using a Linux or Mac system who want a no-fuss way to enjoy YouTube videos should check out Minitube - a standalone desktop player which doesn't even require Adobe Flash Player.
The interface is clean and simple. You're greeted with a simple search box upon first launching Minitube. Enter your query, and results are displayed in a column. They'll automatically play one after another, and controls are provided so you can skip, pause, or stop videos whenever your heart desires. There's a full screen mode built in, and HD video is fully supported.
No Windows binaries have been released yet - but "the results were not reasonable." The developer suspects the arrival of QT 4.6 might make the port possible.
