Mozilla WebMaker Popcorn Project
One of the WebMaker projects is the Popcorn Maker. This Web based tool makes it easy to use your web browser to combine video and audio with content from the rest of the web — from text, links and maps to pictures and live feeds. Mozilla Chief Operating Officer, Ryan Merkley makes a really good presentation about what Popcorn is all about:
Each time someone watches the videos, it’s a point in time experience because the live feeds are updated in real time and consequentially the content is different than previous moments.

OpenShot 1.4.3 Released! from Jonathan Thomas on Vimeo.
My personal opinion is that if you’re used to Windows Movie Maker, this software has the same approach but with a lot more features and enhancements. You can really get professional quality work done with this editor. But you have to be running a linux OS.
You can check out all the main features here and download the editor here.
