youtube

There was a time when you could perform a search on Youtube and see the ratings under every video that came up, as well as the 'related videos' that popped up on the right when you actually watched a video. That, alas, has gone the way of bell-bottoms and tube tops, and now there's no way to be sure that 'kitten fail HILarIOUS' is not some dork mouthing off about his latest obsession with a Twilight-themed gay metal troll band.

Google, I love thee; and better still, I respect thy decisions and genius on all thing to do with the web. But... why? Y u no have ratings anymore?

So here's how you get em back: first, use Firefox. Then, install Greasemonkey for your Firefox. Finally, install the YouTube Rate Everything script. Click on the install buttons throughout and hit 'agree' when it asks to donate your organs for scientific research.
