I tried to access my You Tube account this morning from the home computer and I had to log in using a google password instead of my usual tried, true and trusty You Tube combination.

Needless to say, being afflicted with senile dementia, I had no idea what the fuck was going on and couldn't remember ever even having a google account for anything. Had to fart around with resetting passwords and all that jazz...

Did I miss something? When did Google gobble You Tube?

Google acquired Youtube in 2006 but have only just changed the layout. Not sure why your login would have changed to your google one. Maybe a glitch in the system

I thought it was pretty recent since I use it frequently enough...Glitch? Dunno. Was the same on the work computer so seems like it's those goggle bastards' fault. :angry:

I am realising that this is true. I opened a gmail account a couple of days ago for a specific purpose. That'll be why they got linked.

BUT. Now that I have changed the password for you tube, I can't access the fucking gmail account...:facepalm: Fuck me days, simpler? Bullshit! :angry::brick::angry2::bash::2guns::Pokey::ar15::a r15::ar15::thud:

I hate having to remember all of my passwords to each and every site that I sign up to. :pinch:

Happened to forget my Youtube one at some point. Couldn't be bothered with all the password reset jazz, So I just made a new one. Pure and simple. I don't have any videos, so its not that much of a big deal :yes:

I wonder when they'll offer free tech courses for people over 40? :blink:

At some point, people wont even know how to work some of this tech, and the instruction manual will be 12345321345 pages long, with 123132 pages highlighting all the possible functions of the damn thing :crazy:

There is an 'edit channel' button that allows you to revert to the old layout if you want.

I quite like the new one - I'm just in the process of making all my sites kinda match.

There is also a multiple sign in option if you have more than one google account.

You just have to be smarter than the system slofox :-)
