Over the weekend, YouTube has quietly rolled out a new feature for the video sharing site. You can now upload in 3D.

A Googler known only as "Pete" has revealed on the help forum that he's building stereoscopic support for the streaming service in his "20% time" - the fifth of time that all Googlers get to work on projects that they're interested in.

The add-on lets you use a variety of methods to get your 3D fix - from traditional red and blue glasses, through mirror split and even "Magic Eye"-style eye-crossing. There are only a few videos that it's enabled for, at the time of writing.
