OK so all the iLife apps already integrate well with each other what other apps could we see working well with one another?
So lets brain storm!
iChat (hopefully with a better UI) with iTunes and GarageBand where for example as an alert that a buddy came online you could have an clip of an iTunes song that you'd edit in GarageBand as the alert.
TextEdit and Mail could probably have little buttons that would increase integration although you can already do that in the services menu that nobody uses so that's not a big deal.
iCal and iTunes again you could have clips or whole songs play or even play lists as alerts of things, you can already do this but it could be a bit simpler to do.
iCal could work with iPhoto for things like calendar photos for different months and stuff like that... you know have it be the background in iPhoto with varying opacity and stuff like that it could be a "nifty" idea. Would got a cheer or two at MacWorld and it's not like they'd have to do that much work to put it in I imagine.
also a slightly different idea to where they've been going with .mac perhaps apple could come up with a suite of basic internet authorship tools, you know something BASIC, a good easy to use FTP client, basic html editor you know tables, insert quicktime and flash movies, open other html things that sorta thing, I imagine with webcore it shouldn't be that hard anyway. And they could sell them in a bundle for like 50ish american or something. And give em away to .mac users.
But if you only choose to buy the web tools you could still do stuff like export premade iPhoto albums to the net for your website or to host on your Mac for others to just download, and be able to publish your iCal stuff.
Of course that all could integrate with the iApps already there and all.
The only other future things I could see becoming big for apple in the future would if they like licence PS Elements and rebranded it under apple which I doubt they'd do.

I wish Apple would distinguish better between apps that belong to iLife and those that belong to the operating system. Then all the iLife applications can integrate with each other as much as they want, but leave me alone. I don't want to see them (ie. being advertised) in OS apps like TextEdit.

Nasrudin sat on a river bank when someone shouted to him from the opposite side: "Hey! how do I get across?" "You are across!" Nasrudin shouted back.

With over 200 playlists, I'd be happy if in iMovie, when you chose the music button, and then dropped down your playlists that they were in some sort of logical order (alphabetical would be nice). I hope other people have this problem and I'm not the only one!

Done and Done (a few times, a while ago), I sent feedback as soon as iLife was released...Do you guys also have this problem?
