A Better Way to Bookmark Online Videos

As you may have previously noticed, the embedded version of YouTube Player now offers a handy ‘Watch Later’ feature that lets you add the current video to a queue with one click. You can then conveniently watch all these ‘queued’ videos later.

There’s one minor problem though.

YouTube is ‘the’ most popular video sharing website but it’s not the only one around. You have sites like Vimeo, TED, Break.com, Facebook, Revver, etc. that host awesome video content and wouldn’t it be nice if we could extend the same ‘watch later’ functionality of YouTube to these sites as well?

Enter RadBox – a useful web app that lets you bookmark web videos from all the popular sites to a common queue. You can then watch these videos later from one central location.


To bookmark videos. there’s the Instapaper-style bookmarklet that will save an embedded video to the Radbox queue without leaving the page.

Radbox currently supports all the popular video websites include YouTube, Vimeo, College Humour, Google Videos and many more.

Once you are done watching video, you can either delete it from the Radbox queue or move it to the archive.
