Google Video has given itself a redesign, adding some nice search tweaks and a fresh new look. Now when you search for a video, results can be viewed through a regular list, a grid, or a TV view that lets you watch a video while you scan through other results.
And if you’re searching for something but have little more than a vague recollection of when it was popular, you can use the new timeline feature, which shows you most viewed, shared, blogged, etc. videos on a linear dateline you can use to scroll back in time.

Perhaps this facelift caused the problems people had uploading last week?
One problem the redesign hasn’t eliminated is copyright infringers. As CNET pointed out, it was a year ago that Google CEO Eric Schmidt said the company would roll out a means of stamping out piracy at YouTube. And while YouTube launched its Video Identification system in October, content owners are finding the results “inconclusive.”
