YouTube Adds Online Video Editing As You Upload

You Tube has added a basic online Video Editing suite that allows you to upload and add music to your short video.

"Aside from the player interface, the whole interface makes use of HTML5, though it’s not as sophisticated as a former Flash-based “remix” tool that YouTube offered, then discontinued. (That seems to be the nature of the design of the tool more than the comparative functionality of Flash and browsers.) What’s nice is that videos in your account appear automatically, ready to drag, trip, and compose. You can add audio from YouTube’s AudioSwap service, with accompanying advertising, though I couldn’t figure out a way to upload my own soundtrack. (You may simply have to do that by uploading as a video?)"

A Review of Russell Crowe's Robin Hood

"Aside from the fact that Robin Hood could have been named anything else, it was a boring film. At two hours and twenty minutes, the film just felt long and bloated. I couldn’t help comparing this film to Gladiator (having the same star and director.) But where I was rooting for Maximus within the first 5 minutes of Gladiator, I never connected with Robin Longstride at all.

Come to think of it, I didn’t care about any of the characters in the film. All of our “heroes” start out the film on their way back from the Crusades pillaging villages in France. Then when the “evil French” begin to invade England near the end of the film, we are supposed to hate the French. But why? The English were pillaging their villages for no good reason. Why shouldn’t they fight back? I could go on and on but I won’t."
