{{Flashing lights}}'''Read More''' is a form of [[screamer]] used when Google+ was introduced to [[YouTube]].

~~== '''Google+ glitch''' ==~~

~~{{Infobox|title = Read More|image = Readmore.png|maker = Not Applicable|date = Not Applicable|type = Glitch|status = Patched}}~~In the first few years of the Google+ integration, links to YouTube videos would be represented by the ~~videos~~ name instead of the YouTube URL. Also, you could write long messages, but they would be hidden and a link to expand the message would be at the bottom of the visible message. YouTube trolls quickly found out that they could write a short message without an ending and then paste the URL to a YouTube video with a title like "Read More (12 Lines)". People would think there was more content in the message and click the link. The link would then link to a [[screamer]].

This does not work anymore, but there are still a few [[screamers]] of this kind left on YouTube.
