Adblock Plus is safe, simple, and secure. It’s an extension on Google Chrome and an Add-on for Firefox. It helps deter what is and isn’t an add or virus for the less fortunate eye when browsing the internet. I personally installed this on my parents computer because they don’t know what is an Ad or virus and what to click and what not to click. I also installed this on my computer because it takes the ads that autoplay before your music/video on Youtube and Hulu.

Summary:
This is a great tool to help prevent parents, young ones, and in general, non-tech savy people from getting virus’s and or getting frustrated with Youtube for their bothersome ad’s.

YouTube made an executive decision to do a complete makeover to their website and create it with a more social networking feel. Making YouTube with a side bar on the left that includes your subscribed channels, trending, popular,music and suggested channels, makes youtube alot more user friendly. Not to mention thats the way facebook, google+, and twitter not so much but for the same general feel, is formatted. I have seen comments on facebook about how people dont like the change of the new youtueb but i think they have yet to realise its only going to make the site more interactive and show them more of what they want to see.
