Ringback tones - this is the new cellphone customization craze of the 2000’s. If you’re a cellphone user, there is little chance that you haven’t already heard of them. What I’d like to do is give you a couple of ideas about how you can have fun with ringback tones on your cell.

First thing, I have to tell you that my favorite customization is not even the music clips. I love to find fun audio clips for adding to my cellphone. Anyone can hear the latest pop song, in fact they are probably sick of it by now and it’s the last thing they want to suffer through while waiting for me to answer my phone. I may as well put on elevator music.

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.

For those people who are pretty particular about the type of music that they listen to, or would have any interest in being associated with, ringback tones are still a really fun option for you to add to your phone. The music selections vary between different cellphone providers, but I have found that there is at least some selection for just about any musical style that I have been able to think of. If you are looking for new releases, you’ll have no trouble finding anything on the charts. For the more obscure genres, your selection will be limited, but you should still be able to find something fun to identify your style.

In order to get the ringback tone to play for your caller when they dial you, you will need to go through your cellphone carrier. The easiest way is to use the web interface, where you can browse, preview, and order the ringback tone or ringback tones you want on your cell. Unfortunately, there is no way for you to upload your own tones, which also means that the possibility for you to upload free ringback tones is also out. Regardless of that, the fun ways that ringback tones allow you to customize your cellphone for your friends and relatives is still worth a few bucks to me, so you know that I’ll keep using them. Well, that is until the next fun cellphone customization thing comes along.
