Pasting URLs in Comments

Hey guys, this is Matt Kinsen on with a video on pasting URLs in comments on YouTube videos. So how many times has this happened to you? You're browsing YouTube, you find someone who's just like, "What's the URL to this?" You know the URL, but you can't paste it to them in a comment, and you have to send it to them in a personal message. Isn't that annoying?

I figured since Mackinson 1, we have a lot of URLs for downloads and stuff, we're making an app that any of our subscribers can get that will let you encode URLs so that way they can be pasted in a comment, okay? And email addresses and decode them with a simple formula.

So first of all, just to prove that you can't put a URL in a YouTube video, I'll go to YouTube.com, log in. Now I'll go to one of my videos; this is my most recent video. Hey guys, I might as well use this! I'll post a comment. I'll just type "mackheads in the one.com." Okay, and I'll click post.

So now I can refresh the page, and it's not there. Hey guys, under the comments, it says it acted like it posted, but it's not there. So we've designed a program called URL Fiend, and it runs on Power PCs and Intel computers, and it runs on Tiger and Leopard.

So say I type the URL in this input box, and I click encode. So here it is! So now if I paste this magic code in here, it's posted this comment. Hey guys, this is Matt Kinsen right there, and now the only way for people to get this URL back is to copy it, paste it in our app, click decode, and here it appears under output.

So this is a way to not go through and replace every dot, the word "dot." Also, there's this thing called method add and subtract. If you do subtract, you'll get a different encoded thing. So basically, this is why if add doesn't work when you try to decode something that people paste, try subtract.

The reason I have two methods for this is because if YouTube figures one out, we have two. So that is how we plan on encoding URLs so that way we can send them to people. So check out this app; you can download it. We'll have a link in the description of the video, and you'll be able to download around my kids and online.

So thanks for watching, and goodbye!
