Election `08 Alert! RINGTONES08.COM Debuts as First Free Site For Posting & Sharing Election 2008 Ringtones

RingTones Poised to Become the Political Bumper Stickers of the 2008 Election

(DEERFIELD BEACH, FL) – A picture may be worth a thousand words, but sometimes just a well-chosen short political sound bite can rally a cause, make us laugh and maybe even sway an election. Now RingTones08.com, a joint Green Machine PR and Mobile Active production in partnership with MyxerTones, introduces the first free site that lets people easily create and share ringtones about the upcoming 2008 elections.

Ringtones08 makes it quick and easy to create ringtones and broadcast opinions - from any political persuasion - about national or local candidates, issues, get out the vote, or any other subject dealing with the 2008 election. To post a ringtone, users simply go to RingTones08.com, click on “Submit Your Tone” and follow the steps on MyxerTones’ site to upload their 20 second audio file.

“RingTones08.com lets someone in Utah turn a political gaffe or gem into an original ringtone that someone in Manhattan can broadcast every time their cell phone rings - in the subway, at their office, in the mall,” said Jo Lee, co-conspirator at RingTones08.com. “RingTones08.com leverages the viral quality of digital media to push user-generated content into real world venues.”

RingTones08.com relies on MyxerTones’ revolutionary platform that simplifies the delivery of any user-generated content (such as music, video, pictures, and more) to mobile devices, no matter which carrier or network the phone is on. “MyxerTones is pleased to power RingTones08.com,” said Myk Willis, founder and CTO of MyxerTones. “Just as MyxerTones has democratized the mobile marketplace, making it possible for anyone to bring their content to mobile phones, RingTones08 is using that power to bring political discourse to the mobile platform.”

“We’ve been obsessed with ringtones ever since we heard about the huge impact political ringtones made in the Philippines in 2004,” said Katrin Verclas, co-conspirator at RingTones08.com. “Activists made a ringtone of a wiretapped recording of the president talking about how she rigged the vote. It wound up being one of the most popular ringtones ever and grabbed headlines worldwide.”

Continued Katrin, “Ringtones are the political bumper stickers of this election and the YouTube generation. So, ring it ON!”

RingTones08.com was designed by the fabulous talent at Rhode Island’s Big Ring Design.
