How to Link to a YouTube Video So It Starts at a Specific Time

You might already know how to do this for embedded videos, but now here’s how to start a video playing at YouTube.com at a certain point of time – by using a “#t=" at the end of the URL, and then a time in the format of e.g. “1m45s”:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bibCui3lFM#t=1m45s

(Google Video had this for years, but it was broken – or becoming unsupported? – more frequently in recent times.)

[Thanks Hebbet, who saw it on TechCrunch!]
