Amanda Webb – Spiderworking I had a quick look and it seems you can just overlay text an graphics on top of a video. There’s no timeline editing, motion graphics, audio editing . . . . unless I’m missing something.
Trevor Lorkings I’m not sure it’s fully launched yet. We’ll have to wait and see
Amanda Webb – Spiderworking when there’s powerful, fully featured video editing tools for free or low cost I’ll not be holding my breath
