			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>People often find it easier to learn things merely through the use of text and videos. RhymenLearn takes things to a new level, to the point where learning is made even more easier.</p>

<p>It is already a known fact that children can learn music lyrics faster than they can learn their science or math concepts. That is why RhymenLearn brings these concepts and notes into lyrics form by rapping them in a music video to further enhance the learning experience of children.</p>
<p>Just visit RhymenLearn and choose whether you want to learn about Science or Maths. Once done, find the lesson you are looking for, open it and play the video and start learning.</p>
<p>Features</p>
<ul>
<li>Free of charge – no account required.</li>
<li>Students stand a better chance of learning rap music than their notes.</li>
<li>Lyrics can be found at the side of the video if you just want to rote-learn.</li>
</ul>
<p>Check out RhymenLearn @ <a href="http://rhymenlearn.com/">http://rhymenlearn.com</a> (via <a href="http://wwhts.com/Ahxqsb">Wwhts</a>)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you are in the mood to procrastinate, you ignore your chores and start spending time on the Internet. But you often cannot decide on a website to spend time on. Since everybody likes cat GIFs, Procatinator was created to help people easily procrastinate.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you know what drink best matches your music taste? As it turns out, there is an app for that. Drinkify is a simple app that suggests drinks for you based on the music you are listening to right now. This idea may just be an offshoot of music suggestions based on your mood, but it works out to be a fun app nonetheless.</p>
<p><img src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/dir/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/110.png?570cd5" alt="drink suggestions" /></p>
<p>Using Drinkify is very straightforward, just enter the artist, song, album, or anything that you like in the music search box, and then Drinkify will match the best drink for you. So typing in &#8220;Usher&#8221; will get you a 10oz gin, while typing in &#8220;Justin Bieber&#8221; will get you an 80z Red Bull. We don&#8217;t know how Drinkify comes up with these results but it sure shows how drinks and music mix together.</p>
<p>Drinkify is a somewhat useful app for those who need drink suggestions when planning a party. Other than that, it is just a fun and clever app.</p>
<p>Features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Free; no sign up required.</li>
<li>Provides drink suggestion for your favorite artist/song.</li>
<li>Extended the idea form mood-based music.</li>
<li>Similar Tool: <a href="http://www.makeuseof.com/dir/drinkolic-perfect-drink-recipes/">Drinkolic</a> and <a href="http://www.makeuseof.com/dir/flavortunes-music-for-your-party/">Flavortunes</a>.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you just finished making an independent music video for your band? If yes then you need to share it on a platform dedicated to independent acts. For this purpose you will find a web service called IndieByChoice very helpful.</p>
