Ringback Tones On Your Cellphone
Anyone that owns a cellphone has probably been bombarded with all of the possible add-on features that are available, such as super duper voice mail packages, call-id, block call-id, downloadable games, custom ringtones, etc. What I have just discovered lately is another fun customization for your cell phone, custom music clips that play for your caller when they are waiting for you to answer. I have some fun ideas for anyone that has been considering ringback tones for their cell phone, but is still undecided.
One of the funkiest things that I've found for customizing my ringback tone collection is audio clips. These are not just a music clip of a pop hit currently making the rounds on the radio. Audio clips can add a lot of variety and imagination to the dead air time that your callers would hear if you didn't take advantage of the ringback service.
Probably the best ones that I've heard recently are replays of the classic comedy monologues. I know these days that these clips are probably quite foreign to new generations, but adding a clip like "who's on first" is just a really fun thing, when you know you can make your friends or relatives smile for a few minutes every time they call you.
More typically, music clips will be the sound of choice for the majority of customers using ringback tones. If you spend any time searching the web for cool stuff for your cell phone, you've no doubt seen the endless ads for current R&B and pop hits downloadable as ringtones. Although not as prevalent, ringback tone selections pretty much echo the commercially available ringtone collections. The great thing is that the cell phone carriers stay up to date with current music releases, since obviously these are hugely popular.
Outside of the current pop-charts, if you are still more a music person than comedy or audio, there is bound to be an extensive selection you can choose your ringback tones from. Even if your musical taste is eclectic or obscure, the music libraries of cellphone carriers is quite extensive, and is updated regularly to cater to all sorts of different musical tastes.
To get the ringback tones installed on your phone, you need to go through either a call-in interface, or use the carrier's website to select and purchase the ringback tone you want on your phone. Yes, I did say 'purchase', because unfortunately you can't control your own clips, and therefore you can't get free ringback tones. The clips are stored on the wireless company's server, so you must go through their setup program to select and program them for your phone. Regardless of that fact, it's just one more fun thing that I can do with my cell phone, so I can guarantee that I will continue to set up ringback tones on my cell phone. - 18418
