GarageBand

So we just had to turn in project 1 and my project was on learning to play the acoustic guitar.  So I thought I would talk about an app that deals with the guitar.  This app is called GarageBand.  I just learned about this app a couple days ago but I love it already.  You can literally make your own music and have it sound good without knowing anything about music! This app supplies you with the guitar, the bass guitar, the drums, and many more instruments that you may want to add.  With every instrument you can choose what note and what type of difficulty you want for a specific point of a song and let it have it.  If you do not want the app to provide the strumming or the guitarist parts for you, you can do it yourself.  There is a lot to learn about this app and I am still trying to learn a lot about it myself but I find it to be very interesting.  It is a great app and I do recommend it.

Project 1: Learn to Play the Acoustic Guitar!


Here is the link to my project 1 website.  If you are looking to learn some things about the acoustic guitar go and check it out.  My site provides the basic essentials of the beginning acoustic guitarist.  I am no expert on the acoustic guitar, I just taught myself to play and I thought that I could help others who want to teach themselves as well.  The site is comprised of things that I learned on my own, as well as information found online that can be useful.  Enjoy!

Bubble Ball

Bubble Ball!  This is one of the simplest games in the world but it is so entertaining! There is a ball and there is a flag and you simply have to get the ball to the flag.  The game gives you blocks, long rectangles, and triangles that you have to strategically place to get the ball to where it needs to go.  The first few levels are very easy but in the later levels it starts to get extremely difficult to get that stupid ball to the flag.  Whats amazing about this app is that it was developed by a 14 year old boy.  A 14 year old is smart enough to design an app that is one of the top free apps available in the world today.  This app is very entertaining and I do recommend it.  Enjoy!!
