Movie maker is free application from windows for editing video and audio. Besides editing video (cutting frame/adding decoration etc) this application able to create video photo from your favorite album collection and add some music for the background (This is my hobbies :p)
Movie maker for windows 7 is not much different from Movie maker in windows xp platform. The different is in windows xp movie maker automatically installed along with the platform and in windows 7 you need to download it separately although this application is also from the same platform (Microsoft).

Actually there is installed application in windows 7 platform to edit or create photo video called Windows DVD Maker. For me instead, this application is better than movie maker if it's only for make photo video. Because this application support .gif file, it doesn't mean that movie maker doesn't supported this type of file but in Windows DVD Maker this image[dot]gif will actually like .gif file (moving image) different for Movie Maker which only displays image.gif but didn't make it move. The shortcomings in Windows DVD Maker is, you can't save it without burn it into Dvd/Cd.
I would like to show you the different between this application through video recording, but since i'm a newbie too and haven't know how to record my activities through my computer, so you can try to compare this two application by yourself later. Oh yeah one more thing, if one of you have found the way to save Windows DVD Maker without burn it, please please please share with me :).
