Ringtones Affect your Image

OK, lets face it. If you have a corny ringtone on your cellular phone, it is the equivalent of yelling to the world I am lame. every time your phone rings. OK, maybe not the world, but certainly everyone in your general vicinity will know.

The cool people already realize that ringtones are much more than just a signal that lets you know when you are being summoned. It is an extension of ones cool persona, a veritable cool meter that broadcasts the results to the people around you.

At first, the ringtone was nothing more than a way for the technologically savvy kid to show off. Add a few years and today it is a cherished fashion statement much like the latest jeans and shoes. What can you say? People love their ringtones and they love for others to hear their new ringtone.

Think I am kidding? It is estimated that 5 of 10 users play their ringtones for friends, just to let them hear it and 4 out of 10 users chang their ringtone more than 3 times in a single month. Why? Does it somehow make getting contacted more effective? Nope, its just cool to do.

Ever notice that people allow their phones to ring longer these days. They appear to pick up on the third or fourth rings as opposed to the first or second. Its a cell phone. It was designed to be with the owner at all times. So, what takes the person so long to pick up? Yes, you guessed it. The ringtone is no longer the annoying ringing of yesterday. It is often the latest tune on the radio. Often times, the owner of the cell phone listens to the ringtone of their favorite song or they allow it to play longer to impart upon those around them that they are cool. It expresses their personality and they love it.

What does that tell you? It is meant to convey the beloved nature in which cell phone owners interact with their chosen ringtones.

Irrespective of whether your chosen ringtone is your favorite song of the time or a spoken line from your favorite movie, one thing is for certain, the old style chime and ringer is quickly being eliminated as an option if you want to be seen as fashionable.

Ringtones arent limited to professionally recorded songs and sound clips. With todays computer technology at the fingertips of millions, some cell phone users are creating their own ringtones. Mothers have their babys crying as their ringtone, motorcycle owners have the sound of their Harley, and there are so many other variations that I cant possibly name them all.

Much like other products considered being fashion statements, the best ones often cost money. The Cell Phone Money Toolbar at CellPhoneMoneyToolbar dot com provides money for cell phone owners to buy as many top ring tones as they may like. The CellPhoneMoneyToolbar interfaces with TypoBounty dot com. TypoBounty dot com is where companies offer cash rewards for helping them locate errors on their website. With the cost of ring tones taken care of, there is no excuse for not having a great ringtone on your phone.

The ringtone has infused the cell phone industry with additional style and does not appear to be anywhere close to slowing down. So, if you are wondering if you are cool or not, simply wait until someone calls you. Your ringtone wont only tell you, but it will tell everyone around you where you stand on the subject.
