Search Comments on YouTube in Real-Time
Today, Comments Search moves into Test Tube, the place where our engineers and developers test out new features and gather data and feedback before pushing them out to a wider audience. This feature allows you to search the comments people are making on YouTube in real time. The full comment will appear on a continuously updated results page, and "trending topics" indicates the hottest topics of conversation on YouTube at that particular moment. Comments Search is a way you can find out what YouTube users are saying about everything from the news stories of the day (below, see results when we typed in "balloon boy") to your individual channel or brand.
So try it out, enter your feedback here or comment below, and help us get this feature ready for the masses. We're always working on new ways to enhance search across YouTube and give quick and easy access to the information people are looking for.

POINTLESS.
GO ON THIS LINK http://www.youtube.com/user/TheShupers AND WATCH ALL THERE VIDS, I HEARD THAT THERE FUNNY!!!
i dont get how this function could be useful. too much twitter engineers?
This is great, but when are you ACTUALLY going to get to the real problems with this site? Like how you let everyone false flag and false DMCA claim videos. I'd rather have a site with not many functions that have no flaws than a site that has lots of functions that are buggy as heck.
Very very cool feature! Hopefully the spam bots wont abuse it like they do on twitter, right!? :D
SEARCH ON YOUTUBE gigglebot20 OR lilearzya
love that feature i found a video i have been looking for for weeks
I thought that this new feature was pointless. However, I just tried it out and found a video that I would have never found if I had used YouTube's regular search. I love this feature.
Is the search sorted in chronological order?
One thing needs fixed. When a search yields no results, I get a 500 Internal Server Error.
I want to learn more about this new feature and see how it should help us to promote our websites. http://www.digitalshoptime.com
Why would you want to search comments? Also Reese had a good point. Rather than making the site flashier, make it function properly first.
Hey Youtube, when can I revert my channel back to the old design in real time?
Don't tell me it'd be useless or waste development time, as this post shows that you guys are all about doing both of those things instead of focusing on actual site functionality issues.
YOU TUBE IS THE BEST!!!GREAT! Love this new feature of YOU TUBE! More Power you tube! It makes easier now to look for a videos. Very interesting, and user friendly. I await for further development of YOU TUBE, more, more more to come. Keep rocking! We can't deny the fact that YOU TUBE is one of the well known internet site on uploading our favorite videos, that we wanted to be seen all over the world. You tube is one of the most influencial website for many individuals. Infact, even those who doesn't have internet connection is so much aware that YOU TUBE is existing. I agree that YOU TUBE has some technical issues, but then the improvement of their technical team is doing great!

oh btw, awesome twitter tube lolz
No don't do it! It's like Twitter but more than that if you look at the amount of spammers in the Twitter Trending topics you can see that the same thing will happen on Youtube but on a bigger scale!!! Not a good idea, there are way too many ignorant hate comments on YouTube already, the last thing we need is those hate comments being promoted!
I think this is an awful idea. Almost no one types comments that, on their own, make sense and should be searchable. And there's already enough comment spam. This would only promote it. If you're going to implement this idea (although I don't suggest it), you need some (much better) way of moderating the comment section.
TheWillOfDC just posted a video about this that basically sums up my feelings.. IT'S STUPID. It'll spread even more spam, through trending topics and searches. Did you know if you look up Obama you get "f that n-word obama" like all over the place?
You say this is a family friendly site but doing this will only promote the hate.
I think it's a bad idea for many reasons.
I completely agree with this guy:

If you were to add features from another site, I think you should go with daily booth.
Being able to add pictures with your comments and things like that, but of course that'd have to be watched closely.
Twitter's features are just too different and don't work with Youtube:P
No I don't like it, it brings out the hate in youtube too much
i love u should do it
Blogging in real time is neater than the electronic cigarette
ooooooo
any example what word could work well?
oh boobs
allow me sort out by using the curb for hype vids
DO it fuck people saying you're copying twitter, willofdc is being a douchebag about it...
Cool feature
YouTube rocks!
comment search seems pretty neat.
However, the one main change I would do to video comments (not necessarily the comments search) is to make them more like Digg.com and have them default to "most liked/digged." That way the best/funniest/most relevant comments are encouraged to rise to the top instead of the the way it is now, which seems to favor "most current."
Real-time comments is an illogical, basically useless idea.
Let us have our old channel designs back. Your new channel design is awful and I don't bloody want it.
I find it interesting that youtube isnt letting some of my comments be posted. Is this anti spam system or censorship?
Çok çok zaman site http://arabalife.com iyi
Is there a way you can make it so that people cant see your join date?
ytube
y tube
I don't care about trending comments, but at least with this I can keep track of my own comments, which is a missing feature on youtube right now
Scratch that, seems it searches the comments from only a few days, which doesn't help much
