Ah I see...might have been a timing coincidence, google auto upgrade same time as BYC ad problem.<shrug>I don't have a problem using the browser.The new sign in showed up after the ad problems that were happening here on BYC.That is why i was concerned at first,
The problem with Google plus is that they changed youtube and you automatically got a Google plus account, no opt out option.Most youtubers didn't like the idea.
It became their "social media" facebook type thing? So you can't email a youtube user through youtube you have to go through Google plus,and add friends in your circle etc.
I get frustrated with all the apps and upgrades and forced usage stuff.
