One more Y Tube Video

Using Mono Chrome and Instrumental Music rather than color and songs can make a change.

Also note the fonts , colors of backgrounds in the video.

Only 1: 12 or 72 seconds of your time.

A Software called Prezi

For an added dimension in your multimedia presentations , rather than plain old powerpoint take a look at Prezi (from www.Prezi.com).

I used Google Docs to create a free standard presentation , and downloaded in Powerpoint.

I then used Prezi to create the zooming effects.

I then used a software for capturing screens XVidCap ( a linux version of Camtasia)

Using Youtube’s audio swap I mixed the soundtrack on it.

Romancing Social Media

I tried I sighed I almost cried
Sent her facebook messages till I almost died
An impossible force my passion for her
Her immovable demeanor beneath her icy side

When fire meets ice there will be blood
Intoxicating romance leading to tearful flood
But that’s a square dance we date and dance
For loving and living always gives a second chance

Automated Content Aggregation

Here is a way to create Content Aggregator-

1) Create a Google Alert for keywords (like say MapReduce and Hadoop)

at http://google.com/alerts

2) Create a WordPress.com free blog and enable the Auto Post by Email Feature (using manage my blogs in Settings- Reading in Left Bottom Margin). This creates an email with random numbers that can enable you for sending emails and thus auto posting.

3) Create an Email Filter in your Gmail Account to auto forward this to the post by Email Account

Note you can thus create an auto aggregator and pick and choose for creating a Keyword specific or domain specific newsletter. It is all free and takes 15 minutes to set up, and is then automated.
