If you're the type who likes to regale your guests with silly viral video clips on the big screen in the living room -- and who doesn't? -- this next item is for you. Vimeo has just launched its "couch mode" full-screen viewing mode. Like YouTube's Leanback mode, it features a simplified UI with just the options you'd want while couch-surfing: in this case a More Info screen toggle and a Watch Later queue. Less clutter means more time to watch eight year old rappers and bad local comedians. Sounds like a winner to us! Currently only available to Chrome and Safari users, with support for other browsers on its way. Get a closer look at the info screen after the break.
