Some of the ideas presented here look promising. But I really don't see this taking off in its current form. News and blog websites already wrap videos with the related written content and links etc. And as one user described above, clicking links half-way through a video really breaks the user's attention to the video. Perhaps it would be useful if YouTube used machine-intelligence to recognise the content of a video and provide links below to related Wikipedia entries or news articles?
