Amazing un-conventional iPhone application from Smule that turns your iPhone into a musical instrument. Checkout Smule website  for Ocarina which turns your iPhone into a wind instrument. I have just downloaded the 0.99c app and tried it out. It sounds good. Takes some time to get used to the fingering.

I was browsing through Muziboo today listening to Aavakaiite Vamsi's song from Anand and being an avid reader of Blogs landed on Muziboo's blog.

Surprising! Amazing! Found a five year old's composition there.
Hats off to Nishant and his mom for encouraging him.
Wishing Nishant a great future.

We watched Delhi 6 movie the other day. I had high hopes especially since the movie was from the makers of the much acclaimed 'Rang De Basanti'.

The characterization was quite enjoyable, although a tad bit overused.
