Great idea!

It used to handle only the popular section of GoogleVideo, but now you can also define searchterms... just set the searchterm option!

Here's the history:

0.7.3.0
    * Full Internet Explorer support
    * Correct Aspect Ratio preview

0.7.0.0
    * Half-baken Internet Explorer support: In MSIE you won't get the preview image scaled to your window width, because percentage scaling doesn't seem to work correctly.. instead you'll only get a 160x120 icon.
    * Invalid search handling. Now when your search term doesn't return any results, it will instead load a video from the Random or Popular tab.
    * Really random videos: A random string is added to every Random or Popular request to keep Google from buffering.
    * Video does now stretch.
    * Inline support removed in favour of better video resize handling and MSIE compatibility
    * Some other stuff that I can't remember right now.

0.5.1.0
    * Get a video from either Random or Popular category.
    * Get videos from your own search... (try "simpsons")
    * Enable/Disable Autoplay
