Attractive Ringtones?

Can the quality of your ringtone improve your pulling power?
A website pherotones.com certainly seems to think so.
Forget about dating, speed dating, and texting dating sites;
simply stand in the middle of a crowd and set your phone to go off.

You might then attract the opposite sex (or even the same gender
according to a small video on the site!)

Good luck!

Your Personality

How much do you give away about yourself when your phone goes off?

Does your cellphone ringtone play your favourite song,
or a part of a movie?

Or are you immediatly labelled as a cat lover when your phone starts
to miaow loudly!

Do you stick with the same boring tones that came as standard with your mobile?

The next time a phone goes off in public, watch the cellphone user's neighbours instant reactions to the loud ringtone, favourable or not.

(And then tell them to put it on silent :P )

The HOFF



Here is a video of the Hoff. It has to be seen to be believed.
You gotta admire a man that will dress up

like an eskimo (or inuit) and shove a huge fish
in his gob.

Warning: this video is not for the faint of heart.
Many German housewives have probably fainted
after watching this clip.
How many of them have a David Hasselhoff ringtone
on their Siemens cellphone I wonder.

Remember: you have been warned!

Classical Music Ringtones

It amuses me to be sitting on a bus and here so many different ringtones sounding.
Who would have thought that with all the choice out there many phone owners will opt for a tune that was created centuries ago.

Imagine how J.S.Bach, W.A.Mozart and Ludvig Van Beethoven, all sitting on a modern day bus would react to hear their music emanating from trvellers pockets.

It's not unusual to hear Ode to joy, turkish rondo, and Air on the G string on the same journey. Beethoven's fifth, however, does not seem to be a popular choice.

One would imagine the initial da-da-da-daa to be an excellent wake up call.

Maybe people are more interested in listening to their ringtones these days than to those that are calling them!

Why on earth would you want to download a ringtone for your mobile phone?
Well it's a way of personalising your cellphone, and stamping your own identity on it.

Ringtones aren't just monotonous beeps any longer, they can be almost any sound!
You could choose a snippet from your favourite movie, or coldplay song, or whatever you are listening to right now.
