Standalone YouTube player Sprink removes the need for a browser
by Brad Linder May 6th 2009 at 10:30AM
Sprink is a standalone YouTube client for Windows Vista or Windows 7 that lets you search YouTube and watch videos in a browser that's not much larger than the video window. In other words, you can easily watch YouTube videos while making room on your desktop for other applications like a web browser or word processor.
The application is still in development, and the CoverFlow style feature for browsing through search results is a bit sluggish, at least on my netbook with its slowish 1.6GHz Intel Atom processor.

I warn you, if you read on, this might turn into more than just a mere ten-minute time-waster.

Isn't the point of sites like Youtube the fact that you DON'T need another program to use them?

You need a web browser, and in the cases that you do not have one or you're not sure youtube will work out a standalone program can be a better option for this functionality
Also it looks cooler.
