Today, we are excited to bring a new twist to annotations: the ability
to collaborate on them with other YouTube users. Now you can invite
anyone you like to create speech bubbles, notes and spotlights on your
videos.
Enabling Collaborative Annotations is easy. First, go to your
annotations editor (which you can find in My Videos or by going
directly to your video's watch page) and retrieve the special
annotations link. Then send it out to your friends. Once they click on
the link, they will be allowed to add annotations to your video. If
you don't like what they write you can always delete their
annotations, and you can also disable access to the annotations URL so
that no more can be added. Naturally, you can edit or delete anything
you write on someone else's video.
So please give it a whirl and let us know what you think. We can't
wait to see how you take online collaboration to a whole new level.
