Hulu announces new web player

It looks like YouTube isn’t the only one getting a player revamp. Hulu announced today that if you watch Hulu on a web browser, you’ll be treated to an improved experience. The player is now 55% larger in size, and features an improved design with a new frame, a drop shadow and sits on a dark gray video matte. All the details have also been moved to the bottom of the player, giving the player a cleaner, crisper look. While it’s not going to affect people who watch movies in fullscreen mode all the time, the new player looks like it would be welcome by folks who perform other tasks and watch shows at the same time. Just head over to Hulu.com now to try out the new video player.
