New Youtube Feature? Swarms of Bubbles as Related Videos

Am I going crazy from studying too much or did Youtube add a new feature to its video player?

If you view a video in full screen, there should now be a small weird symbol (which reminds me the symbol from Sharethis) beside the play button.

Look at the new button beside the play button

Clicking on it brings you an interactive array of bubbles where each bubble represents a video. From the looks of it, the bubbles seem to be videos related to the current video.

Hovering over them gives you the video’s title, length, screenshot, and rating.

Continuing hovering over it will create a new swarm of bubbles related to that specific video/bubble. And, “ooOh” - look. They are even color coded.

I’m not crazy right?
