No More Youtube Ads

Kunal of Udacity has figured out how to play YouTube videos without having to sit through painful ads. How?

Know the ID of the YouTube video (Jeez, YT is a word now - if you type Youtube, without the T uppercase, spellchecker frowns!).

For example : take this video of Anton Kriel telling "the truth about trading" :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9h3lByx59ns

You never paid any attention to the URL before because your finding and playing was GUI based. For now, this video doesn't come with ads. But, what if it did and you didn't want to watch the ads.

Get the ID - in this case, 9h3lByx59ns.

Construct this URL and load it and you're done :

https://www.youtube.com/embed/9h3lByx59ns

You can get smart by adding stuff like "?autoplay=1&html5=1" and stuff like that :)

Next step - can you define a keyboard shortcut for Chrome so that you can do something to load the video (CTRL-SHIFT-LMB maybe?) this way? Wouldn't that be nicer than having the cut and paste text :) ?
