##What? A sreenshot A sreenshot

A div with an embedded iframe shows up when you mouse over the thumbnail of the video. Comments are loaded beside the video. Click outside of the video or press any key to end the video.

This behavior works for thumbnails in your feed, as well as thumbnails at the side of a video page.

##Why? What's better than a nice subscriptions feed page that you can scroll forever?

A page where you can scroll forever AND watch videos.

##How? This is a Chrome/Chromium extension, uses jQuery to do some simple attribute extraction, DOM manipulation, mouse events. Uses iframe to embed video.

You can now get this at the Chrome Web Store!

Alternatively, git clone https://github.com/ngzhian/quickview.git, then go to chrome://extensions and turn on Developer mode. Finally just click the "Load unpacked extension..." button and browse to where you cloned the repository. Hopefully everything works fine!
