YouTube Introduces A Logoless Player

YouTube has introduced a logoless player so you can embed YouTube videos on your blog without any branding.

Most people automatically recognize embedded YouTube videos by the YouTube logo that is permanently etched in the lower right hand corner of the player.  But according to a recent post on the YouTube blog, the branded YouTube player has now become optional.  That’s right—YouTube has introduced a logoless player so you can embed YouTube videos on your blog without any branding.

The announcement came earlier this week.  Kevin Wilson, a software engineer at YouTube writes, “Many of you have asked us for a version of the YouTube player without a YouTube logo, so the video plays without any branding nearby.”
