Youtube has increased the standard upload size limit on videos from 1GB to 2GB. This move is pretty interesting given the fact that Youtube is pushing the HD quality videos. . The increase means, now you can upload longer videos at a higher resolution as well as large HD files directly from your camera.

Youtube blog also shares two interesting HD hacks.

* To share a link to the HD version of your video, simply append &hd=1 to the end of the URL. This means the video will start playing in HD as soon as someone follows the link. Cool, huh?

* To embed the HD version of a video on a website or blog, click the ‘customize’ button to the right of the embed box on the video page. Some options will appear; simply check ‘play in HD’. The embed code that’s generated will cause the video to start playing in HD as soon as a viewer clicks play. We recommend embedding HD videos at the largest size (853×505) for maximum enjoyment.
