iLife '09
Apple iLife '09 sees several improvements over iLife '08: iPhoto now has face recognition, geotagging, and social network integration ; iMovie regains a few advanced tools ; and music lessons come to GarageBand
iPhoto's face detection isn't perfect, and the social network integration needs some work ; iMovie's great for simple editing, but advanced users might find it lacking
Apple iLife '09 is a great application suite for simple media organizing and editing, and the addition of features like face recognition, geotagging, and music lessons makes it worth the update.

iLife 09
There are few certainties in life. Until recently, the list was: death, taxes and the predictability of a Shortland Street storyline. Now you can add the yearly update by Apple of its iLife suite of applications
iPhoto '09 introduces two major new features in Faces and Places, and a few nice-to-haves

iLife 09
The latest version of iLife 09 doesn't have any new applications, and two of its existing components, iDVD and iWeb have been virtually untouched. But the improvements to iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand mean that there's plenty to get excited about
Overall, then, despite the apparent stagnation of iWeb and iDVD, the updates to GarageBand, iMovie and iPhoto make iLife 09 a very worthwhile upgrade indeed

It ads some nice functionality, and it does make some things easier. Also it seems that the suite has become more user centric
I was on the phone with apple support for an hour because when I tried to open the title browser in iMovie it would quit. I had to reinstall the operating system to get it to work properly
