In the video page here:

http://www.gm-volt.com/chevy-volt-videos/

... you have a gallery of the Chevy-produced Youtube videos. When you click on one, it opens up a little CSS window for playing the video. I want to get to the actual Youtube page so I can get the direct URL to the video. Can you just have those thumbnails link to the regular Youtube URL? You could do it with a target="_new" so that it opens a new window, so they won't leave the gm-volt.com site.

The "Watch on Youtube" link embedded in the flash video frame doesn't work because it wants to popup a new window, which gets blocked by my popup blocker, and I don't want to create Yet Another Exception in the popup blocker just for this. As it stands, I had to look at the HTML code to dig up the Youtube video ID.

That page isn't working as when I launched it. There are a lot more videos. I will review.
