After looking at our teams design, I decided to take "The Unnecessary Test" approach to our final design. Our redesign to YouTube was the side panel when you are signed in.

Here's our sketch:

Using "The Unnecessary Test" technique step by step has allowed me to identify a feature that was not needed in our redesign. As you can see, when the "My Popular" is clicked on there is a drop-down menu. When "My Popular" is prompted, the user is able to see all of their selected tabs on this homepage also which makes the drop-down menu irrelevant. ThereforeI have come to realize that this feature is a "nice to have" feature and is not needed for the overall function of YouTube's side panel.
