YouTube has introduced a new feature called Video Annotations which will now allow YouTube users to make interactive YouTube videos using annotations and bubble messages.

Flickr users would already be familiar with this feature as Flickr allows users to do the same with static images but of course annotations in videos would definitely be more fun and would make the video more interactive and appealing.

Here you can watch an Interactive Card Trick video which is one of the very first YouTube videos to feature Video annotations.

To add annotations to your videos simply login to your YouTube account, go to videos and click "Edit Annotations" button to the right of the video. YouTube gives you the liberty to add commentary, messages and even hyperlinks to your videos using this new feature. Once you are done adding annotations, just click "Publish" to reveal your annotated videos to others.

Video annotations are enabled by default on all YouTube videos but for those who think this feature is a little annoying, they can turn annotations off through the "Menu" button on the bottom right of the video player.
