Hi All,

I was Googling something else and discovered that YouTube has some nifty 
keyboard shortcuts. I'm posting them in case others of you didn't know 
them either.

To play/pause a video, hit the spacebar.

To fast forward or rewind by 5 seconds, tap the right- or left-arrow key.

To fast forward or rewind by 10 seconds, tap the letter l or j.

To fast forward or rewind longer, hold down the right- or left-arrow key.

To jump to the 10, 20, 30 ... percent point in the video, hit the 1, 2, 
3 ... on the keyboard.

I just tried the shortcuts, and they do work. You have to give the video 
a couple of seconds to start playing. I don't know if focus is moving to 
the seek control during that time. The screen reader does chatter, but 
you can tap the control key to shut it up.

Just passing it along.

ciao
