It uses jQuery to make an AJAX request to get a YouTube feed formatted as json and and a little bit more JavaScript to output the images, titles and author info to the page.
The code that I used is based on the YouTube Channel Playlist plugin (demo) but I modified it quite a bit. To use the YouTube plugin you just need to add a script reference to the jQuery library and the jquery.youtube.channel.js file. A simple YouTube widget for everyone. Google Demo Slam. Vimeo.

While it has always been possible to add images to any inside of your Google Docs spreadsheets, you can now insert images and icons inside individual spreadsheet cells as well. To add an image to a cell, highlight the cell, click F2 to enter the formula mode and then type =image(“URL”) where URL is the public web address of that image. Google Docs, by default, will scale the image to fit inside the area of the selected cell but you may change the default settings by adding another parameter to the image function. For instance, a formula like =image(“URL”, 2) will stretch the image to fit inside the selected cell while =image(“URL”, 3) will insert the image into the cell at its original size. If you are getting parsing errors, you are either using a non-existent image or you may have missing adding quotes around the image URL inside the image() formula.

There's an example workbook where the getTweets function is used available for download here. The functions work in Windows Excel 2003 and later - macros need to be allowed in Excel's security settings (after changing the setting, you may need to restart Excel).
