New YouTube look (youtube with G+)




Looks like Google is going to launch a new look for youtube.

This time, YouTube focuses on merging his look with Google+. Personally i love the new clean look. Another thing that i fully support, is the change of the standard mode from "small player" to "large player". Also, the interface for playlists is much more clean and elegant.

Some people may not like one visual change that comes from G+... everything is align to the left, leaving some space at the right side of the page.

If you want to use it right now it's easy with Google Chrome (probably on FireFox too, but i didn't try it yet). Just open the console (Ctrl+Shift+J - Alt+Cmd+J in OS X) and write this command:

write: document.cookie="VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE=jZNC3DCddAk;"

And hit Enter. After you refresh the page (F5) you should see the new look.

Faenza icons and theme for Ubuntu 12.04 / 12.10



There is a new icon set and theme for Ubuntu from Matthieu James, the creator of Faenza. Personally i love it, and it will make my Ubuntu more beautifull (untill i change to ElementaryOS Luna).

Just add the dedicated PPA, install it and use GNOME Tweak Tool to set your new icons and theme:

  • sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tiheum/equinox
  • sudo apt-get update 
  • sudo apt-get install faenza-icon-theme faience-*

Update
