I have been running Ubuntu on my PCs for a few months. On my desktop Ubuntu is the only OS, however my laptop currently can run Windows and two versions of Ubuntu.

The only reason I was hanging onto Windows was the Widnows Movie Maker. However today or maybe yesterday, Microsoft did something that pushed my patience to its limit. Evidently the most recent Microfots update pack screwed the GRUB and I am no longer able to choose my OS on startup. I am sure there is a way to correct this but instead I went on and tried to take a closer look at Kino- the Linux video editor.

What I have discovered surprised me:

  1. Kino is as good as the Microsoft Movie Maker. Actually it may be even better.
  2. Kino integrates perfectly with Blip.tv.

Bye bye Windows!

Update: After writing this post I came across Dan Dennedy’s Blog- a must read blog if you have chosen Kino as your video editing software.Similar Posts:
