This weeks application is Shazam app.

This is an app that is guaranteed to bring you lots of entertainment, and a ton of fun.

If so, this is where this app can Settle these matters.

The Shazam app app can determine what song is being played, and by whom. The application uses the iPhone's built-in microphone to listen to the song, and then provides you the name of the song and artist that you are listening to. You can identify a limited amount of songs for free, however for a small fee you can use the application unlimited.

As you can see this is a nifty little app that you can go out there and make friends with. You can find it in your friendly app store on your eye device, so hurry up And go get this Shazam app.

This concludes the segment for today, take another five technology.

Take Another 5 – mystery

If you would like to contact me for ghost writing your projects, contact me via the email found at the end of these notes.

This week we are going to do things a bit differently, i’ve been asked by several individuals to share my thoughts about how a mystery is made

First of all, you start with a description of the mystery. Give a brief description of your mystery, what it's all about, and be sure to use words that grab the attention of your listen

The next thing you need to do is discuss the scene of the crime. Provide vivid descriptions of the crime scene, for me my scenes are very descriptive of what is at and around the scene of the crime, but not necessarily the horror of the…

You want to blame your listener to crime.

Keeping good balance between suspense and description.

The next thing you need to do for developing your mastery is to tackle your motives. Make your motives realistic, down-to-earth, and mysterious. Make the motives easy to understand, don't spend too much time packing your motives with stories and alter your motives. Remember, your listeners are here to relax, don't make it too difficult for them.

Next week come to your suspects. You need to be brief in the description of their suspects, make them mysterious as well! Don't forget to make your suspects as human as possible, give them something that will appeal to your listener.

You next go to Your cause of death, be brief in your description of the cause of death. Come to your point early, and be upfront with the cause of death.

Provide a report of some sort of investigation. This is vital in the development of a mystery, you have to give an investigative report.

I hope that these tips will help you become a better mystery writer. We need more entertaining mystery riders of the world.

Take another 5 - In the end zone with the entrepreneur

This section is for me to share with you tips about becoming or being an entrepreneur. I've been a entrepreneur since 2000, and have seen the landscape of entrepreneurship change over the years.

For this week, we ask a question.

Can a teacher be an entrepreneur?

Yes, you could tutor after hours, choose the subjects that you feel kids need help in. Choose a subject that you feel comfortable in teaching. You can provide the tutoring yourself, or hire others to provide it. If you are this type of entrepreneur then you need to be willing to provide after hour services. Don’t forget, you should make friends with the parents as the parents are the decision makers in this situation.

Beet the Bullies and scams

This weeks scam alert is those website asking you to verify your information when it's not necessary. If you're asked for your email address or your name and you're not ordering something, then just leave this website and move on with your day. You may be prompted to enter your information in order to help the website owner keep there database updated, if in your opinion you're not required to enter this information because you're not ordering something or you're not requesting information then don't do it.

Now it's time to build awareness against bullying

You maybe asking yourself why I am adamant about building more awareness around bullying. I believe that children with disabilities are more susceptible to being bullied at school. Just picture this, you are a blind child at school, and you know for a fact some of your classmates are bullies, both in the classroom and the playground. You are unable to see, so you can’t tell when they are approaching. You only know that they are close to you, but you can’t see where they are.

If you have never been in this situation, you wouldn’t understand. Your child has no way of getting away from the bully, because if they tried to run then your child knows the bully will catch up to them. All your child can do then is hope and pray. Bullys may hurt or steal from your disabled child. These bulls have the edge on your child because they are able to see and your child can’t see.

Visit the campaign against bulling today to learn more about how you can help reduce bullying.
