Tip of the week:

Online Video Editor
Called eyespot, those with a decent upload speed will have a lot of fun with this tool.
It will let you edit your home movie or captured game footage, and cut it up, put titles in etc.
I chose this one over the others, because it lets you do more normal transitions, like Crossfade.
