6 Tools for Editing and Recording Audio

If you have a large collection of music, you might have thought of editing the sound track for yourself by adding or removing part of it. There are many audio editing tools available that allow you to do the same – edit audio files, like you edit text files by cut, copy and paste. Many of these tools also support audio recording, if you are planning to create your own album then you can edit your tracks by yourself.

For multimedia developers these audio tools are a great gift, using these tools will enable you to mix, edit, add effects etc. You can give life to lifeless songs by adding effects, gain back the lost quality by changing frequencies. You can merge multiple tracks into one and create a long track or split a track into multiple tracks.

Taji Ramblings – Oct. '09

October 20, 2009  |  Articles  |  4 Comments  | 

Been tough trying to find the time to blog these days. My advertising day job is demanding allot so I don’t have much time to research let alone write out articles about things that grab my attention. Here are a few issues that have been on my mind lately… I thought I’d share them for the heck of it:

1. The Move
For those who don’t know yet. My family and I are moving from our current apartment to a bigger place about 15 km outside of Cairo. That should take place on Halloween (we don’t celebrate Samhain the festival of the dead). New place is nice.. quiet and clean … I hope that neighborhood stays that way cause I am honestly sick of the city. Egypt doesn’t have professional moving companies that will help pack your stuff for you and ship it to the new area. You basically hire a company that has a truck and they hire moving workers (according to the amount of furniture involved) then you agree on a day and pray to God that everything goes smoothly.

Bits & Pieces Part Cinq

October 12, 2009  |  Articles  |  3 Comments  | 

So I've been slacking a bit with my blog duties... Problem is that me and my family are moving to a new apartment end of this month and I'm neck deep in logistics to make the transition as smooth and painless as possible. Also I got hired to put together a website for someone and they wanted to launch it before the end of this month (as well) so now I got two deadlines that I need to meet. Yeah this whole webdesign thing was kind of a surprise addition to my roster of professions. It was revitalized when I decided to

Funtime Post: 50 things the internet killed

October 7, 2009  |  Articles  |  No Comments  | 

Morning Folks,

I figured the last post of mine was a little heavy so I decided to share a nice little article I read on the Telegraph.co.uk website called 50 things that are being killed by the Internet.

Allot of this is spot on (in my opinion) and in some cases a sad truth of our time.

50 things that are being killed by the internet

By Matthew Moore

The internet is no respecter of reputations: innocent people have seen their lives ruined by viral clips distributed on the same World Wide Web used by activists to highlight injustices and bring down oppressive regimes

Below we have compiled – in no particular order – 50 things that are in the process of being killed off by the web, from products and business models to life experiences and habits. We’ve also thrown in a few things that have suffered the hands of other modern networking gadgets, specifically mobile phones and GPS systems.

Do you agree with our selections? What other examples can you think of? Please post your comments on the bottom of the story – we hope include the best suggestions in a fuller list.

VO Online Advertising With Google Adwords

October 5, 2009  |  Articles  |  No Comments  | 

Good Morning Folks,

Its been a busy few weeks. I launched a private business website as well as another free Voice Over community website called I Love Voice-Over Work I’ve also been on the hunt for a new apartment outside of Cairo (specifically in a new area called New Cairo … yes very original) and then finding an apartment and then finally leasing the place. It’s been pretty hectic and add to all that I’ve also had a crunch at work put all these different things together and you have a pretty stressed out Mahmoud Taji.

But I did have time during this period to get myself involved in some self promotion with Google Adwords.

Lets first break down a few of the different services that Google provides and that might help you promote your services or monetize your blog.

1. Google Adwords


This service allows you to use google’s search engine and targeted advertising system (adsense) to bring in more customers. In Google Adwords you can post pay or pre pay google to distribute a text based (or image based I guess) advert through out its network of advertising areas. This doesn’t just include google.com (the search engine) but also includes the different areas that google adsense ads are posted. You pay google per click. Google provides you with data regarding how effective your advertising is as per the impressions (how often your advert is shown) per click (how often people click on that advert) ratio.

2. Google Adsense


This service allows bloggers, webmasters, publishers of online content to make money off their websites by displaying advertising on their digital content. They are paid per click. This money is sent in the form of a check to you directly. They do not deposit the money into your Paypal account because paypal is a direct competitor of Google Wallet or whatever its called so … that kinda sucks.
