FreeTwitTube is a useful tool that lets you read what people are saying about specific videos uploaded to YouTube.
It's not uncommon for people to search out how-to videos on the web when you want to learn how to make something. Maybe you want to learn how to knit. Maybe you're interested in trying your hand at your favorite restaurant dish. Whatever the case, YouTube's a great resource for finding video tutorials.
How do you know the tutorial's any good though? That's where FreeTwitTube comes in.
FreeTwitTube is a neat little program that will collect tweets from Twitter users referencing the video you're viewing. It works with Firefox, Internet Explorer and Google's Chrome and shows up directly on the program page of the video you're viewing on YouTube. You can even respond to the comments via the webpage if you're already signed into your own Twitter account.
Unfortunately, FreeTwitTube relies on people actually having commented on the video in question in order to be an effective service. If no one comments, there's nothing FreeTwitTube can provide by way of Twitter comments. FreeTwitTube's icon is also initially a little difficult to locate since it's very small on an already relatively busy-looking webpage.
FreeTwitTube is a great resource for people who want to know others' opinions on the YouTube videos they're watching.
