Extension Usage Instructions

                        Google removed the YouTube categories from the description of videos. This extension allows you to easily see YouTube video categories again in place of the subscriber count of a channel. If you're just curious, or need to view these categories for web filtering, YouTube Categories will give you back the information you were missing.
