The drum machine application on iPhone was developed by MooTheCow, and he gave it a simple name called “Drummer”. Besides, iPhone, it runs on iPod Touch too. Drummer allows you to play up to 15 unique audio samples (one on each finger touch pad). Similar to other musical apps on the Appe gadgets, it takes the advantage of the multi-touch capabilities, so you can play up to five sounds at once. And also, it allows you to play along with MP3. It comes with pre-installed sound sets including Rock, Dance, Electro and Jazz. You can also update with your own sample sounds easily.

Anyway, this drummer app is still on its BETA version, which is still unavailable for download for a try on your jailbroken iPhone yet. But you can get yourself prepared by reading more on MooCowMusic, keep an eye on it and be the first one to get when it gets released.

iPhone Gadget For The Musician In You

Ever thought that your iPhone has reached its limits in softwares and its uses. Now there is such a software that will blow your mind especially if you are a guitarist.

I love playing the guitar sometimes love songs and most of the times oldies. But playing heavy metal is and has always been something that I wanted to learn but it is difficult with the guitars that I have now. Owning an iPhone has always made me think that I am the best geek in town with the latest iPhone but today it has really blown me out of my seat.

The software called PocketGuitar, makes your iPhone to work like a guitar, developed as a Google Code project by a guy called Shinya Kasatani. Before I forget, the software works for iPod Touch too. You can also download the songs that you’ve produced during your long guitar sessions onto an iPod for play back.

Bloggers Secret Weapon

What differentiates your blog. What attracts people to blogs is more about the person behind the writing than the actual writing itself. Try checking out all the top blogs and they are personality driven. What I mean by that is it is the brand of the author that transcends the content itself. Of course the content goes a long way to developing the online brand of the author, but when it is established the content is less important.

I hesitate to say that it is the personal brand of the author, rather it is the online persona which is created and used to market the blog. This is why companies and corporations have a hard time blogging, it’s all about online personality, conversely this is why a lot of blogs are boring.

I’m sorry to say this, well not really. But most people are average, normal and boring. Not that there is anything wrong with that, some of my best friends are average, normal and boring. When it comes to reading something, people want a bit of spice, a bit of pazazz, even when it’s around factual based information.

Making money from blogging can be done, I havent made anything from this blog so far but I make a lot with it. Starting a blog these days, even in a narrow niche is difficult because of the amount of competition out there. A lot of the blogs espousing problogging as a way to get rich got their readership back in the days of when the it was all wide open plain and you could stick your flag in the ground and build your blog empire.

But a blog is a fantastic tool if you use it to market what you already have. The point is, there is an easier way to make money using a blog than simply picking a subject, slapping on the advertising and building a readership.

My point is, you can learn all the tricks in the books, learn everything about blogging there is to learn (it’s a good idea to do that), but at the end of you day it is YOU who will be making the difference. You will be the reason why people will come or ignore your blog.

Just because you want to be a blogger doesn’t mean you will be a good one. From looking at the amount of blogs out there I would say you have 1 chance in 100. In that for every 100 blogs started only one is worth it.

But if you have the cajones? If you have that little twinkle in your eye. If you simply wish to succeed no matter what it takes. You should remember your secret weapon. YOU!

Do not be afraid of leaking your personality all over your blog. I’m not. And yes it may mean objectivity may be compromised, but people do not go to a blog for dispassionate, bland facts and figures. They visit to read what someone has to say.

Whatever you say, say it with a little style, a little panache. Shout it from the rooftops. Make sure people know what you think. Dare to challenge the status quo. Stir it up a little, take on a bully or two.

Ultimately, be yourself.

A Software that converts your thoughts to code??!!

21st century has seen many developments and advances in the way things are done, and the amount of gadgets and innovations flooding the markets everyday is amazing! And till now, people used to bow in respect to the software developers who created this magic, generating software programs that go into these revolutionary “objects” and make our life simpler and fascinating. But I was seriously shocked, (surprised, astonished, wide-eyed, etc etc) when I read about this product - a software that writes by itself!!

The famous inventor of Microsoft Word and Excel, Charles Simonyi, has come out with his new innovation, the “Intentional Software”, slated to be released probably by this fall, is a software so smart that you can simply tell it what you want and it’ll write the code for you. Hurray!! everyone does not need to be a programmer anymore!! Simonyi and his startup have been working on this for 7 years. it centers on Domain Workbench, a human-language graphically friendly representation of the software as it is built.. Users can write clear instructions in text, spreadsheet or flowchart describing what they want the software to do (basic logic), which is then sent to a code-generator, and the latter spews out lines of code to build the application. f course, human engineers are still needed to help set up the programming language and tweak for some changes. But still, the major load is taken care of. For further details, visit http://www.intentionalsoftware.com/

This could prove to be the next generation of software programming, and a boon to solve business problems, but will it be successful? People are skeptical about Simonyi’s ideas, and yet you’ll also find strong supporters who believe this could change the standards of technology by removing human errors or “bugs”.

What happens, is for you and me to see, but till then, I think we’ll just revel in this fantastic tech innovation!

Comcast, one of the largest ISPs in the US, took the decision to restrict the Internet access for some of its customers because they download too much. Although it might sound a little bit shocking nowadays that you can’t download as much as you want, the company disconnected the users as they
were slowing down the entire network and increased the latency and the loading times for all the other users. AFP reported that in order to get a notification from the parent company you have to download 1,000 songs or four films from the Internet. However, every consumer has 30 days at disposal to resolve the matter and to avoid the disconnection.
