YouTube Rewind, the company’s annual end-of-year tribute to creators, trends, and moments that defined the platform, will not happen this year.

The company issued a statement acknowledging that “2020 has been different,” adding that “it doesn’t feel right to carry on as if it weren’t.” This marks the first time Rewind won’t happen since YouTube started the annual celebration in 2010. Although Rewind has become somewhat of a joke to the creator community in recent years — it became the most disliked video of all time in 2018 — it’s still a staple of YouTube’s culture, even if people are just using it to dunk on their own videos. To be fair, even CEO Susan Wojcicki admitted they’re a little cringe-inducing.

“We know that so much of the good that did happen in 2020 was created by all of you,” YouTube’s statement reads. “You’ve found ways to lift people up, help them cope, and make them laugh. You made a hard year genuinely better.”

While many people were stuck at home because of the pandemic, YouTube saw surges in usage as more people spent time streaming video online. By the end of March, views on videos that centered on “with me”-stylized content (get ready with me, work out with me, study with me) saw massive increases in viewership, according to the company. Live-streaming also picked up on YouTube as well as on other platforms like Twitch and Facebook.

YouTube did not say if Rewind will return for 2021. Like everything right now, I imagine it all depends on what the future brings. All I know is I’ll miss YouTube’s annual attempt to try to celebrate the good on its platform (especially when there’s so much bad), and the inevitable reaction videos from creators explaining in detail just how wrong YouTube got it again.

HOW TO MAKE YOUR FURNITURE LAST LONGER?

Gaming is one of the best ways to pass time. But how can you make your gaming experience even better, lively? What are the aspects of a device that will make your gaming experience better? What to look on a phone so that your game doesn't lag while playing?

Don't worry! We have done the work for you by doing some research and finding out which phones will improve your gaming experience. Some of the things to look for in a mobile phone while gaming are:

• Battery: Battery life is always important in any phone but specially in gaming. Imagine you are so close to winning a game but at the last minute, your phone is dead! You would hate that now, wouldn't you? So while buying a mobile, be sure to check for a higher mAh battery or you can just buy the one with faster charging capacity.
• RAM: You can play games on mobile with 1GB RAM too but isn't it al about the gaming experience? There are phones with 16GB RAM in the market so choose wisely which one is best for you considering the prices and other specifications.
• Display: Talking about the display, you need to find your own preferences. Of course, we want a mobile that has great display quality so that your gaming experience can be movie-like but the size depends on your preference and how do you like it on your hands. 
• Chipset: Now, most people do not look in this field but the powerful the performance, the better the gaming experience will be. You can look for Qualcomm Snapdragon, Exynos, and others.

Here are the top five phones to rock your gaming experience:

Google just announced a new Chromecast yesterday, and the company is already offering a good deal on one — all you have to do is sign up for YouTube TV and pay for one month of the service. If you want to take advantage of the deal, you should be able to access it here.

There are a few caveats, however. You can only take advantage of this if you’re a first-time YouTube TV subscriber, according to the deal’s terms. You then have to make a payment toward your YouTube TV subscription between October 15th and December 31st in order to receive the offer for the free Chromecast. And the deal is only available in the US.

You should also know that paying $64.99 for one month of YouTube TV costs more than just buying the new Chromecast on its own for $49.99. But if you’ve had your eye on both YouTube TV and the new device, this could be a great deal for you.

The new Chromecast officially named the “Chromecast with Google TV,” differs from its predecessors in having an onboard operating system and a dedicated remote. It also does 4K and supports a large number of streaming services.

On Monday, YouTube announced a number of updates for its YouTube Music TV app, including TVs running Android TV OS and the new Chromecast with Google TV. For all smart TVs, YouTube Music users can now access saved playlists and liked songs in their available libraries, the company said in a blog post. The options will appear in the YouTube Music tab within the YouTube TV app. The update also includes new visuals to show albums and playlist artwork.

“We’re working hard to bring even more features to YouTube Music,” the blog post reads. “In the coming months, YouTube Music Premium users will be able to continue playing music in the background after exiting the app.”

The main change is that Android TV OS users will be able to access music uploads directly in your library. There’s also a new playback interface that’s designed to include relevant information like the artist’s name, as well as display a progress bar while a song plays. For devices with the Android TV home screen, people will also be able to use a new YouTube Music row to make browsing easier, according to the blog.
YouTube Music launched in 2018, with The reviewer calling it “surprisingly great.” As YouTube expands the service, the app — on TV, mobile, and desktop — have seen a number of updates. Recently, YouTube made it so people without premium accounts could cast to their speakers and allowed Google Music users to transfer their tunes over to YouTube Music.

Expect more changes to YouTube Music on TV sets as YouTube Music will soon replace Google Music.
