"soundslikeaphone" ringtones

soundslikeaphonegif.gif Driven to distraction by annoying mobile phone ringtones, Andrew Missingham, a former director of performing arts at the ICA who now runs an arts consultancy, The Hub, has launched a website aimed at replacing the Crazy Frog with gentler sounds.

soundslikeaphone.com offer a range of ringtones recorded from real telephones from the Darvel Telephone Museum in Scotland, ranging from modern phones and recent classics like GPO trimphones, all the way back to a 1911 hand-cranked bell, to create ringtones that won't make you cringe if your phone goes off when you're out or in a meeting.
