Here’s a compilations of most Web 2.0 controllers. If I forget any major web 2.0 video site, post the link in the comment and I’ll add them here.<\/p>\n


\nGoogle Video<\/a>: <\/strong>One of the best. Subtle, soothing and very functional.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nYahoo Video<\/a>: <\/strong>Nicely done with purple theme.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nAOL Video<\/a>: <\/strong>So much wasted space.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nBlip.tv<\/a>: <\/strong>Plain but simple and clear enough.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nimeem<\/a>: <\/strong>Also plain but I like this one better as blank area (white) is transparent so it’ll blend in with your webpage color.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


\nYouTube<\/a>: <\/strong>Great for 50 inches monitor.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nMetacafe<\/a>: <\/strong>Slightly over the top but pretty functional.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nVeoh<\/a>: <\/strong>Clean. I dislike detached controller but this one works well.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nSelfCastTV<\/a>: <\/strong>Serious abuse of drop shadow.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nGameTrailers<\/a>: <\/strong>Pretty sleek and functional but a little too thin.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nGameVideos<\/a>: <\/strong>Bizarre composition, not very functional.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nStupid Videos<\/a>: <\/strong>Pretty good with clear composition.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nDivX Video<\/a>: <\/strong>Not my type but it works. Bar thumb is a little too abstract.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nCollege Humor<\/a> and Vimeo<\/a>: <\/strong>Very over the top but inline with their website brand, it just looks out of place when embedded in other webpage.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nBreak.com<\/a>: <\/strong>Subtle but video time is almost unreadable.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nUnknown: <\/strong>Not sure who this belongs to but it is one of the most professional design next to Google Video.<\/span><\/p>\n

Edit: Additional controllers below<\/strong><\/p>\n


\nJibJab<\/a>: <\/strong>I like the clean structure and somewhat modern design of UNIX OS UI.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nMotionBox Classic Mode<\/a>: <\/strong>Nice and roomy.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nMotionBox New Mode<\/a>: <\/strong>Pretty innovative with new controller design although it might will scare away some people.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nMySpace<\/a>: <\/strong>Surprisingly nice design for a site like MySpace.<\/span><\/p>\n
