We are in a war. Not a war between two countries, but a war for our computer’s operating system. Software makers such as Microsoft and Apple have been waging this ruthless war for more than thirty years without even a moment of reprieve. On one hand, Microsoft has such a pervasive operating system that software designed for it is practically universal. On the other hand, Apple has clever and fashionable programs that are hard to turn away from. On still another hand (if there is such a thing), Linux is absolutely free and for those with coding knowledge, is a world of endless software possibilities.
Even with these possibilities, up until this year there had been limited options for easy to use, flexible editing programs running on Linux. Software such as Kino, Cinelerra, Lives, and Mainactor all have had the ability to make simple edits and even some transitions, but have historically lacked a diverse video format support, a flexible work flow, and a stable interface. As a result, some desperate Linux users went so far as to use several programs in order to do what one editing program could do on a Macintosh or Windows PC leaving a big hole for a new kind of editing software to fill. Find out what that software is after the break. Read the rest of this entry »

The FTC, (Federal Trade Commission), announced this week that it is beefing up the rules regarding paid endorsements by bloggers and Tweeters saying they love/use a product but in reality are shills for the company. This new regulation by the FTC is the first real change they’ve had in the rules since the early 1980s. From celebrities endorsing products on shows like “Oprah” to unknown so-called “users” who rave about the products on their blog, Twitter or Facebook pages, the Truth in Advertising guidelines didn’t touch social media until now.
