fails with YouTube #5

Hello. Awesome extension. But we are using YouTube to do some research and it does not work with URL pasting!

All URL's pasted from YouTube fail to work correctly and have no information except "YouTube" in the title.

It seems that Youtube simply put "Youtube" in their html title. It's hard to improve it in this case, but PR is always welcome.

For YouTube it's just: "http://www.youtube.com/oembed?url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=" + vid + "&format=json" The returned JSON contains the title.

It is only a few lines of code to add this, you probably have a preferred way of altering your code to deal with i.e. processSpecialURL()

I threw it in as a quick hack
