Google is amazing - it seems like if they want to enter a market with a product they can blow anyone away. They're smart, very smart. Look at Picasa. They didn't try to create another Photoshop, but they realized that there was a large group of people out there that don't need or want the advanced features. They just want to easily organize and edit their pictures. Then they took it a step further and integrated Picasa with Blogger, and gave it other great features like a timeline viewer and movie maker.
That brings me to the one downside - the movie maker does not allow integration of sound. Very unfortunate. Here's a workaround:
1. Create your movie in Picasa ('Create' menu item --> 'Movie...')
2. Note where you save it (in My Pictures by default)
3. Import that movie into Windows Movie Maker
4. Import your chosen sound bite into Windows Movie Maker
5. Drag both onto a timeline and publish...voila!
It's a bit clunky, but at least you get some sound to those great shots.
