Cell Phone mania in LA
Introduction
It’s getting quite weird to think that despite cell phones having been around for some time now and really being quite common, there’s still a cell phone mania in LA - just the same as anywhere in the USA. Sure enough, just because we’re students at USC doesn’t mean we’re not going to be part of the latest cell phone mania in LA. I’ve often thought it’d be interesting to go back in time to when land-line phones were becoming commonplace and see if there was the same enthusiasm for getting the latest model of phone back then. Still I suppose in those days the latest gadget on a phone would have been a smaller ear or mouth piece; rather than seeing how small a cell phone can be made or how many gadgets it can have in it.
Likely cell phone manias in LA
For decades land line phones simply went ‘ring’ and I guess the first phone buzzer or bleep tones caused quite a stir. Nowadays the one thing most likely to create a new cell phone mania in LA is a new/novel cell phone ringtone. No doubt some new cell phone mania in LA will develop over how much technology can be crammed into a cell phone; but with cell phones already having cameras, radio, MP3 players and internet access - I really can’t see what a new ‘gadget’ cell phone mania in LA could possibly be about, unless it’s how to recycle cell phones?
A ringtone cell phone mania in LA
Whilst there are always some old diehards who want to insist that the default ringtone on their cell phone is really cool, or worse having an old fashioned ‘ring’ is hilarious and great - most of my friends want to join in the fun of having the latest tunes as their cell phone ringtones or want to make up something that is truly amusing. Without doubt the latest cell phone mania in LA is making a ‘Singtone’ for your cell phone. Usually online, although you can download the software too, you add your voice to a ‘Realtone’ track. So, you can sing-a-long to your favorite tune or make up your own song as you go along. Ringtones being MP3 quality are ideal for a backing track to record your own voice to, but there is no reason why you can’t also record your own sound track these days as well. Singtones are a massive leap ahead of simply recording your own voice into your cell phone, which invariably just used to sound like someone shouting into an answering machine.
Get the right realtone or singtone service
Ringtones as a cell phone mania in LA is all well and good - but you need to make sure that any realtones or singtones you buy are compatible with your cell phone before paying for them. Some ringtone and singtone services are carrier dependant whilst others can be restricted to certain makes and models of cell phones. Whilst there are some free ringtone download websites if you want a realtone or singtone that’s ‘in’ with the latest cell phone mania in LA then you’ll probably have to pay for it. It’s worth spending a little time on the internet when looking for ringtone download websites to find one that you’re confident is a reputable and established one, as well as being good value for money. Personally it’d have to be something pretty unique to get me paying more than $5 for a ringtone download.
Cell phone mania in LA and USC ringtones
If you’re not already aware there are websites that you can download ringtones of tunes that are associated with your college and its sports teams. For USC students that simply means a cell phone mania in LA for ‘Fight On’; with either ‘Tribute to Troy’ or ‘Tusk’ also being acceptable. At home matches all over the LA Coliseum students will be calling each other just to play the ringtones when the Trojans come out to play football.
