Calming a baby

I know what I'm about to ask probably is common knowledge, but I honestly have got no experience with babies nor do I know anyone who does (except my mother of course, but she's not exactly available right now).

I'm looking for tricks you use to calm a baby. You know, when you've got a screaming, upset bundle squirming in your arms and you somehow want to calm it down. I'm sure parents have figured out a lot of awesome tricks they use. I want something that's creative and not so common. I mean obviously I could go for the bouncing on arm and singing a lullaby routine, but I was looking for something a little different, like, dunno, tickling the ear or so. Not sure if that works...

So, would anyone share their secret baby calming tricks with me? What worked really well with your baby?
