My latest browser extension, TubeStop, is an extension for Mozilla-based Web browsers that disables the autoplay on YouTube.com videos. This means that you can open YouTube videos in multiple tabs without them all starting to play at once.

Currently, this extension only works on videos at YouTube.com, not on YouTube videos embedded on non-YouTube.com websites with autoplay enabled.

TubeStop is compatible with Firefox 1.5 - 2.0.0.*, the latest Flock builds, and Netscape Navigator 9.0. If you're having trouble using the extension, you can either e-mail me at cfinke@gmail.com or leave a comment below.

You can install TubeStop 1.0 from the TubeStop homepage.

The whole thing is pretty funny, but I laughed out loud at around 18 seconds left:

If you're like me and don't have time to watch a lot of TV, but you still want to be able to speak eruditely on such topics as K-Fed's latest faux pas or Conan's latest bon mot, check out the TV Squad Daily Vodcast.

Two minutes of TV Squad Daily will leave you refreshed, informed, and ready to be the envy of all the water-cooler conversationalists. Go get 'em, tiger!

Until I get this feature added to the site, here is a little tool that will convert a Netscape Video syndication code to work on MySpace and other venues that don�t allow script tags.

FYI: If you�re using this code on MySpace, none of the links to Netscape in the video (context menu options, video title) will be functional. This is due to a restriction MySpace places on all Flash movies so that they can�t redirect you to a different page without (or in this case, with) your consent.

Sushil and Shivani, this one's for you:

I am so jealous of Ryan right now it's not even funny.
