User reviews

I don't think this extension works anymore. But there's a new way to change the speed in Udacity. If you click on the gear icon on the bottom right of the youtube window, you can select Speed and change it the way you would like. :)

Doesn't show the droplist to set the speed. Apparently hasn't been updated (for more than two years) to work with current Udacity playback methods. Real shame. This could save people a lot of class-time.
