Hello, everybody! I'm back on behalf of the Community Team with another Community Newsletter! This week we have a couple bits of YouTube news, some awesome partners to recognize, a lot of great videos for you, and of course - tips! Let's wrap up this week!
New YT Comment Management Option
If you go to www.youtube.com/comment_management you should see a new option that will "Block Links" by automatically placing comments containing links into your Review bin. This can be very useful in some cases, and prevent people from only leaving a comment to advertise something. Going into the Review bin though, means you still have the choice to make it public if it's something you want to allow.

Goodbye YouTube Video Editor
I'll start with the good news, essential enhancement features that can be life savers such as the handy dandy "Trim" feature should be staying. However, many sources are buzzing lately about YouTube Video Editor going away. I have mixed feelings about this, the Video Editor was useful for making new videos out of multiple previous uploads; creating highlight videos without leaving the platform! I can understand getting rid of it though, if not many people have been using it. There was a lot more need for that feature several years ago. Still though, R.I.P. YouTube Video Editor... a few people will miss you!

YouTube TV Expands to More Areas!
I'm watching closely for updates about the availability of YouTube TV, and I figured if I'm curious about it that maybe some of you would be too. So, I'm excited to say that they're expanding to more areas in the U.S., this time tripling the amount of locations! I hope that YouTube TV continues to be a success, because it is a great deal for TV lovers! Check if it's available near you!
