Open YouTube videos in fullscreen in it's own window (windowed fullscreen)
Simple YouTube Windowed Fullscreen Extension
Simple YouTube Windowed Fullscreen is an extremely simple extension (only 12 lines of code) that allows you to open YouTube videos in their own pop-up windows.
This is great if you're watching a long video or movie and want to multi-task. Or, you just like being able to see your taskbar and to easily manage the YouTube video's display.
This was made in a few hours (had to learn a bit of JavaScript and Chrome API), but I'd be happy to add any new features and to fix any bugs!
