YouTube shows off some upcoming features for video creators

YouTube's always placed huge levels of importance on its community, starting with the people who regularly upload content to the platform. Now, to make things better for video creators, the Google-owned service has revealed a list of features that are in the works. Most notably, YouTube is set to introduce a new ranking system for comments; improved, more customizable notifications for subscribers; and the ability for channel owners to manage their videos settings, like monetization options, from the mobile app. YouTube says it will also be enhancing its 360-degree video and live-streaming features, with the goal being to let creators easily setup and manage those tools.

While most of these changes are geared toward content creators, they will still benefit those of you who simply enjoy watching videos. According to YouTube, some of these features will arrive over the next two weeks, others later in the year.
