With the release of the SonicMaster, Asus has developed a kind of personalised greeting card program that’s almost a game – it’s so fun to play around with. You make a music box, as they call it, with the easy 5-step process and your friend, or whoever you wish, receives your face on a music star’s body speaking your own recorded greeting in your voice, backed by a band playing whatever music you choose, making the combination is quite fascinating.

Of course, you don’t have to use your own face or a face at all. You can put up any picture you want of anything you want, just remember, it ends up in the place of the head of the music star.

For that matter, you don’t even have to record a greeting. You could “moo” like a cow the whole time or sing some stupid lyrics to make them laugh. You could make up a song about them, put a chicken’s head on the singer, to have them falling out of their seats, so there is no end of fun with this game-like greeting card program.

To top this off, you can share it through either email or social media, such as Facebook. You can challenge them to a competition to make their own. The steps are simple enough for even a child to complete a card. First, choose a music box, which plays a specified type of music. The available types include such things as Indie Rock, Crooner, Diva, Girl/Boy with Accordian, etc…

Next, upload your chosen photo, then you record your message or song or sounds, or whatever you can imagine, followed by writing some message. Lastly, just share the masterpiece with as many people as you like, however you like, as there is a link, an email interface, and a Facebook interface.

Even though this is a sponsored post, I have to say that I’ve messed with it and had lots of laughs with my friends. Try sending the back of your head as a photo or sing some non-sense words, peppered with an intelligent phrase of 2-3 words now and then. The phrases together should make some hidden message. Send that with a message you have typed in backward, right to left, and you will get the best replies and loads of fun.

So now you want to try it yourself, here it is: http://www.sonicmaster.asus.com/event/2010/musicbox/index.aspx . Have a go at it!
