Youtube has introduced its lighter version called '
feather', which can slim down the
online videos to deliver them to the places where the Internet connection is slow.
Feather helps in speedy access to the videos by limiting features available to viewers and reducing the amount of data downloaded by computer browsers.
According to YouTube, the 'feather' pages have default video player of standard quality, comments has been reduced to 10, sharing and embedding options has been removed.
