Chrome: Smart Video Enlarger is an extension that adds two great viewing features to the YouTube web interface.
The allows you to set YouTube videos to automatically take up the full frame on load. This makes the video take up your entire browser window by default, similar to what it looks like when you pop-out the video in a new window. The second is that if you scroll down the page, it will automatically resize the video on the fly, down to a minimum (20% by default) so that you can continue watching the video while scrolling down to read comments.
Even though YouTube has made some changes to their video watching experience over the years, you're still basically stuck with two options: the default video size or fullscreen. Depending on how you watch and navigate videos, this setup is really not optimal nor conducive to your video watching habits. This extension's two features work together to make it easier to get a 'full' video experience in your browser without having to make extra clicks or going fullscreen.

Hopefully the browser extensions and bookmarklets that already make PDFs and PowerPoint files less of a pain, like this Chrome extension, will soon update to give us access to all the new files one can glimpse at with clicking "Save as" or "Open with."

One thing VLC-Shares is not is a one-click setup. It requires running a small form of an Apache web server on your computer, a bit of fine-tuning the VLC media player, and perhaps some of port configuration through your router, if you're not already set up. When everything's up and running, though, you can share any folder on your computer through VLC-Shares, and then play it on your Android device of choice from anywhere on the same Wi-Fi network. Really handy if you're rocking an Android tablet, and still pretty neat if you're doing a little lazy-viewing from your couch or bed.
There are setup instructions at VLC-Shares' home but, honestly, you're better off reading the detailed tutorial at the How-To Geek's home (at the via link). VLC-Shares is a free download for Windows and Linux systems (and Android phones).
