Central Massachusetts Year of the Teen

I just read about a new “face” for Singshot.com - the former karaoke/audio reading website – on the YALSA blog. Here’s what Beth Gallaway had to say:

“I’m not clear if the site was originally owned by Maxis’ EA Games, with intent to launch another Sims Expansion pack, but I don’t care if it was a bait & switch, because the tools are really cool, like Movie Mashups – you can make your own machinima music videos with clips and stills from the Sims. You can create an avatar of yourself that looks like a Sims character. Plus, they added 100 new songs at the beginning of month, and this may become a regular thing: over 80 new titles were added at the end of September, with hits from current pop artists like Teddy Gieger, Nickleback and Fallout Boy, plus a nice mix of country, R&B, and Christian artists as well …”

Wouldn’t that be a fun teen program? Hook up the PC to a projector, plug in a couple mikes, and you’re ready! Or have kids create recordings of poetry, comedy routines, or stories – lots of possibilities!
