Bee Movie

Bee Movie is a lightweight Vista utility that animates your desktop activity by placing a honeycomb on the screen which gives you quick access to different features, namely searches on MSD ENCARTA, ENCARTA Dictionary and Windows Live Search, calculator, and movie trailers.

It boasts a clean and intuitive GUI that gives users the possibility to access its functions by spinning the honeycomb. This you, you can search for different words in the dictionary by simply typing in the words in the primary panel.

Bee Movie comes packed with limited parameters for helping you perform math operations, namely addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. You can clear the results or save them to the Clipboard.

Plus, the gadget lets you view movie trailers with your default player, and you only need to select the movie type (small, medium or large). Bee Movie is able to download the videos to your computer and save them for offline viewing.

During our testing we have noticed that Bee Movie carries out a task very quickly and without errors throughout the entire process. As it would be expected from such as small utility, it manages to remain light on the system resources, so it doesn’t burden the overall performance of the computer, nor interfere with other programs’ functionality.

On the downside, the program hasn’t been updated for a while, so it may cause some compatibility issues with newer operating systems.

To sum things up, Bee Movie proves to be a useful gadget that reduces the time spent on searching for definitions or synonyms on the Internet. It can be easily configured and installed by all types of users, regardless of their experience level.
