mj-ringtones.jpgMobiles phones being a part and parcel of our lives today is not simply a communication device but a style statement. Ringtones of course is one of the most important personalization of our phones. We can easily customize the way our phone rings when someone calls us.The mobile phone being technologically more advanced than a landline phone gives us the flexibility of choosing the ringtones so that an incoming call can easily be recognized if two or more phones start ringing simultaneously. This feature of different ringtones is sometimes the USP of some of famous brands of mobile phones.

There are mainly three types of ringtones:

 Monophonic Ringtone:  These are the most common type of ringtones and are compatible with all kind of mobile phone on the market today. It is made of sequential tones usually with only one kind of musical instrument.

Polyphonic Ringtone: these are ringtones which can play 16 tones simultaneously. These tones are compatible only with mobile phones with advance features.

True tones: True tones are the ones which can be created by the users themselves. The sound of some special instrument or our own voice can be recorded and used as a ringtones therefore are more popular these days. The song can be played in its original format usually MP3 or WAV.  Almost all the high end mobile phones come with the compatibility for true tones these days.However, most of the time we need to pay for ringtones, though a lot of websites offer free downloads as well.

While purchasing the ringtones we need to use our credit or debit card which is not a secured transaction all the time. But some new ringtones sites offer you the option of downloading ringtones of your choice without your credit card information. This is the most secured way of downloading ringtones of your choice. Definitely worth a try, isn’t it?

Reverse Look up

Thursday Jan 29, 2009

Reverse look up is a technology that enables us to track someone just with the help of his/her phone no. This is very easy to use, but chargeable. Some companies also provide this service for free, but only for a limited time or limited usage. Chargeable reverse look up services are more efficient and accurate. This can not only provide you the information regarding the location of the call, but also the name and the address of the person that phone no. belongs to.reverse-phone-lookup.jpg

Usage of this technology or service completely depends upon you. Some people use this service just to find out the details of unknown nos. whereas professionals like detective service providers use this technology to keep an eye on the movement of the person being tracked.

This technology works just like search engines on the internet. We normally pay a fixed amount for certain amount of data or unlimited data download from the internet. However, reverse look up are charged not for the amount of data but because of their accessibility to the huge database of phone nos. and their details. They pay a good amount of money for access to the data This service is also considered to be an invasion into people’s privacy. As I wrote earlier, it all depends upon your usage
