It is hard to imagine that YouTube is only five years old (as of Sunday) but it is. I wanted to share with you a neat new search feature that YouTube seems to be playing with, a form of tag search.
I spotted this via Google Blogoscoped Forums, where you can search YouTube for specific hash tags. For example, a search for [#fail] currently returns these results for me:
As you can see, it searches the comments on YouTube videos for the hashtag fail (i.e. #fail). Supposedly only a handful of hash tags actually are searchable now, including #FAIL, #OMG, #LOL, #FTW.
Meanwhile, there is a bug on YouTube comments that prevents some comments from being deleted.
Finally, I produce a weekly video that I publish on YouTube as well as other places like iTunes and on this blog. If you love search and YouTube, you can subscribe to my YouTube Channel over here.
