Thanks! I'll examine the options.
Edit: plug.dj works fantastic. Thanks again!
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Coding and Sleeping
An Ubuntu update replaced GDM om my system with LightDM and really borked the startup. Restoring GDM took care of the problem. I don't like updates that break things.
Speaking of which, getting podcasts seems a lot more complicated after I installed iOS 6 on my iPod touch.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
David, Credo Mobile had the Galaxy S3 for $200 with a 2-year contract (Sprint) very recently and may still have that special running. That's how I got it.

OK, help. I have about 15 minutes of video (taken on an iphone) of me and my BFF, a significant chunk of which is us giggling at each other, or going "wait, should we stop it? let's stop it and try again". What I need is to edit this down into something I can submit to apply for the Amazing Race.
Anyone got suggestions of the easiest/fastest/quickest-learning method to edit this mess? Suggestions on websites/tutorials that will show me how to edit and move around clips?

Ugh. Apparently iMovie is not the answer for me. I thought it would work similar to other apple products and be vaguely intuitive. I feel like it ought to be easy to grab a few seconds here and a few seconds there and clip and drag and drop or something, and that seems to in no way be how iMovie works. ARGH.

Toast is pretty easy, but I don't know what it costs, or how well it works with anything that is not recorded tv.

Hey. New board.
that seems to in no way be how iMovie works.
Really? That's basically how I'd describe iMovie. There are some tricks to using it better, but if you follow a couple of basic tutorials (even the built-in ones) I think you'll be able to do what you want faster and more easily on that than anything else you're likely to find.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So no one has any camcorder knowledge they can bring to bear on my sister's query?
