In summary, the speaker has created a website, www.just1tube.com, to help teachers who use YouTube videos in their lessons. By erasing the "you" in the video's URL, the distractions of suggested videos and comments can be avoided. The speaker hopes others find this helpful and mentions attempting to post in the "Learning Materials" forum, but lacking permission."

I have been helping teachers who show YouTube videos as examples, but we find the "suggested videos" or comments to be distractions, especially when linked from teachers homepages. In an attempt to help this issue I have created www.just1tube.com

For example...
(no relation to this video, which I picked at random)

Just erase the "you" and put in "just1" so you get this...

I hope others find this helpful. Was trying to post in the "Learning Materials" forum, but I don't have permission there.
