    We're writing a song for our performance project, and I've used this extensively. I've found it to be quite helpful. At first, I thought it would be dumb to post it, but after some thought I disagreed with my original notion. This tool is an example of how technology is helping songwriters network, through the use of a thesaurus and rhyming. It made the song writing process much more efficient and smoother.

  •  
    In a mobile classroom - basically a trailer outfitted with a desk and some chairs - music teacher Chris Miller works with a group of active kindergartners dressed in green and khaki school uniforms.
