YouTube's ability to embed links and annotations within videos is leading new forms of interactivity.

Take, for instance, a new 30-level "Spot the Difference" game based on the Oscars (start playing by watching the video above). By highlighting areas of the frame and linking those to different videos, YouTube user "copyrighthater" has put YouTube to a use that might never have been anticipated. The question: will these "YouTube games" ever be more than passing fads?
