I recently misplaced my cell phone and got some Samsung refurbished cell phone to tide me over until Android releases their phones later this year. I’ve happily discovered that the phone does have Bluetooth, which allows me to send over short audio clips to set as ringtones for specific callers. How do I do this? It’s quite simple, really. Head on over and download Audacity, an open-source audio program that let’s you easily import audio and splice it however you want.  You can easily add a fade-in and fade-out as well.  Then, send that clip over to your phone and viola, ringtones for your friends!  I already set a few up for folks kind enough to give me their numbers for my new phone.  If you want a specific ringtone when you call me, let me know!

• Harry – Chorus, Wen Rou by Mayday
• Jenny – Verse, Somewhere Over the Rainbow, Israel Kamakawiwo’ole
• Koklynn – Piano Intro, Step Back by Jay Chou
• Wilmot – Well Now section, How Sweet It is (to be loved by you) by James Taylor
• Wysz – Verse 2, Damn It Feels Good to be a Gangsta by Ghetto Boys

Zamzar is being really slow, so here are a few I plan to add when I get around to it:

• Charlene – Intro, Flashing Lights by Kanye West (Update: Added!)
• Evan – Chorus, Umbrella by Rihanna (Update: Added!)
• Nelson – Intro, Strobolights by Supercar (Update: Added!)
