Since BlackBerry 10 first launched one of the features that excelled in comparison to other operating systems has been the web browser. It's fast, user friendly and full of options - such as the Reader Mode and the smooth sharing options that integrate with the BlackBerry Hub.
When it comes to watching videos on YouTube I was interested to find out if the majority of CrackBerry readers were content with using the browser for this, or if they choose to use a third party application, as there isn't a native one from BlackBerry themselves? There are a selection of apps in BlackBerry World - some better than others and if you want to check them out you can do so here.
The browser does a great job - these's no doubt about that. In fact, that's probably why BlackBerry didn't feel the need so generate an application for it. I tend to watch YouTube videos on my BlackBerry three or four times a week - as most of the time I'm at my computer. However, for reasons I'm not really sure of I choose to use the app FastTube. I can only presume that I'm drawn to the BlackBerry 10 app UI as it delivers the same goods as the browser.
So, what about you. Hit up the poll below and feel free to jump into the comments to sound off with why you use what you use.

Although we have the Android version of Skype available for BlackBerry 10 users, it is a shame that we didn't ever get a native version, although the Android one does a decent job. I can remember that prior to Skype being made...
CrackBerry Asks: Do you think we'll see a rise in big brands using BBM Channels now it's cross platform?
For us folk on team BlackBerry having BBM Channels isn't a new concept, but for our friends on iOS and Android it's still pretty fresh for them. We posted recently that the likes of Coke and the Olympic channels had seen a big increase in subscribers since Channels was introduced to iOS and Android in BBM 2.0 and that's great news. When BBM rolls out to Windows Phone and the forthcoming...
CrackBerry Asks: Are you now using Instagram since iGrann was released for BlackBerry 10?
We featured the release of iGrann arriving in BlackBerry World recently - even though it had been in public beta for some time. That said - the beta would mean side loading the file which not everyone is happy with. On other operating platforms Instagram is huge and luckily for us BlackBerry 10 users we now get to join in the party thanks to iGrann which does a fantastic job if you ask...
