Sharing Video Ringtones With Vringo
"Vringo is one of those services that left me scratching my head a little, wondering if there was really a market for this, but then again I can't grasp the huge market for cheesy-sounding ringtones either. Vringo is a video ringtone service that allows you to see and share your video ringtones with others." I don't understand why people even want custom musical ringtones, let alone something like this. I've lost count of how many times I've rolled my eyes at the goofy music coming out of people's phones when they ring. This seems even more obnoxious to me. :roll:

Same thoughts over here. My smartphone is set to vibrate the moment I step out of the house. At home I use the Windows Standard ringtone. I can't even tolerate the Cingular or T-Mobile's ringtones.

I used to have a very normal ring, but lately I've started to have a little more fun with people around me.
My main ring is a dualtone. It starts with my daughter saying - in her loud scretching voice: Ring-a-Ding-a-Ding and that's followed by my son in his soft voice saying: Ding-a-Ling-a-Ling I find it funny and it turns heads.
I have also setup a custom ringtone for when my wife calls. It's an audio clip of my daughter yelling: DADDY, ANSWER YOUR PHONE... QUICKLY and this one always turns heads. I was in a bar the other day and it went off. Everyone around me was looking to see where the child was hiding. I just giggle and answered my phone. :mrgreen:
I've got the best ringtones ever. 8)
And back on topic... I don't want to stare at my phone as a call is coming in. I want to hear a sound and know answer the phone. I don't want to keep them waiting while I watch Justin TimberLaker shake his can-can. :lol:

You bet.
The ringtones you have are pretty creative and different. I don't think I would be bothered by it compared to Justin or Britney.

Jerry...couldn't agree with you more on the ring tone thing...and when it comes to business, I think those things are completely unprofessional.

First of all musical ringtones are so unoriginal. When my phone rings, it rings like a normal phone. No Star Wars theme or Shakira songs, just a ring. By the way, do we celebrate for 400 posts? Just thought I'd ask
