Story Blender CEO Hyoung Yong Joon is the original founder of cyworldcom, saycupid.com , kukubox.com, and nplugs.com. Although the site is "beta," Yong's experience shines through - the tutorials, Blend Studio, overall layout, ease of use are all first class. There is really no need to spend time with the tutorials if you already have some (rudimentary) video making experience online.
And to show that he does do what he preaches, here is his own video, the Santa Cons and Salvation Army:
Your challenge, if you feel brave enough to accept it, is to remake this (hint: use the green Remake button) skit into the kind of Christmas story even the real Santa Claus could be proud of. Don't worry, you have a whole year to do it....
Besides the standard (by now) webcam and voice inputs, you can also "blend" in Google Maps overlays and data, which is something I have not seen yet on other sites covered earlier, like Animoto or JibJab.
I fully expect other, useful and fun features in the final 1.0 version, and will report on them as they appear.
