Nearly 100 classic NFL games headed to YouTube

Nearly 100 classic NFL games headed to YouTube

The NFL and YouTube have a new agreement that brings classic NFL games in full to Google's video site, as well as more NFL content in Google search.

 
The National Football League made a deal with Twitter in April, and now it’s lining up arrangements with Google leading up to the 2016-2017 season. The league and Google-owned YouTube just announced a renewal of their strategic partnership, which will bring more football to the popular video site. The biggest new addition will be nearly 100 classic NFL games available in full on YouTube.

The plan is to choose three historic games for each of the 32 teams in the league for a total of 96 games. The games will be available on the NFL’s YouTube channel alongside its other videos. The NFL didn’t say exactly when the games would land on YouTube, only that they would be available before the start of the season, which kicks off Thursday, September 8.



  The new deal will also bring more NFL content to Google search. Specifically, game highlights uploaded to YouTube while games are in progress will show up in searches. Reports of in-progress game highlights coming to Google search first surfaced in early 2015 just before the Super Bowl.

The game highlights will show up in a dedicated box on the search results page whenever you search for an NFL team. The box will also contain the information already shown during an NFL team search, such as game broadcast information, kick-off time, and the current score.
The impact on you at home: The NFL is the most popular professional sports league in the U.S. and a hit online, with nearly one billion views on the NFL’s YouTube channel since it launched in January 2015, the league says. But the NFL’s presence on YouTube has thus far only been used to show game previews, highlights, recaps, news, and fantasy football content. Full games, have never arrived on YouTube in any official form—until now.

10 app icon redesigns: The good, the bad and the ugly

10 app icon redesigns: The good, the bad and the ugly Redesigns happen. Whether a certain look has gone out of style, a brand's direction has changed, or it's just time for something fresh, many popular apps have changed the design of their icons. Instagram just changed its app icon, and while a new look was probably a good idea, many aren't happy about it.   nstagram is far from the first app to go through this. Sometimes it's a home run, but it's rare. More often a changed icon either takes a while to get used to or is just plain bad. Occasionally, the redesign lives in infamy.  May notable icon redesigns came after after Apple transitioned from iOS 6 to iOS 7, introducing a new design philosophy that departed from the skeuomorphism (think: leather texture and wood trim) of the past and embracing a more flat, simple aesthetic. Apps like Messages, Phone, Mail and Weather dropped the gloss in favor of minimalism, and plenty of third-party ap...

 GE GAS18PSJSS Top Freezer Refrigerator with Autofill Pitcher review:  Get automatic water pitcher fill-ups from this top-freezer fridge The Good The Autofill Pitcher is a unique feature that works well and seems practical for daily use -- a rarity with top freezers. Despite the plain-looking design, the fridge feels sturdy and well-constructed. The Bad Storage space is cramped to begin with, let alone with the Autofill Pitcher taking up space on the top shelf.
