Any user's Channel can now be filtered by Most Recent, Most Viewed, and Most Discussed, and gone more lax with comments limits, meaning you only have to type in a CAPTCHA once per login session. You can also unblock users, and browse Partner channels by Most Viewed, or through an alphabetical listing.

The Active Sharing feature may freak out a few users here and there, but it seems to be a pretty nifty way of finding more users to connect with on the site, and have easy access to the videos you've just viewed. In other recent YouTube news, they are testing (in closed sessions) a pre-roll and post-roll ad system for videos.
