Link to a Point of Time Within a YouTube Video
Major hat tip to TechCrunch for sharing with the world a way to link to a certain time point within a video on YouTube.

Take for example this video of a clip from Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.

Diablo 2 Cinematics - 04 - Act IV but best part is 1min 10 sec in.

#t=1m10s

Those aren't random letters and numbers. Put the minute number before the letter 'm' and the seconds number before the letter 's' to direct people to the portion of the video you desire.

Now the link is

Just thougth I share this grate feature.

iv known about that for awhile. Don't know when they added this feature tho. You can also make a comment; for example "2:21" post, and it works like a link.

I thought there is no need for the high quality one, as you can set it as a standard in the Youtube options now? “The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.” - Albert Camus

Yeah but most people that watch youtube are your average pc users and they probably don't know that so I like to post the link in high quality if there is one.
