Wouldn´t it be splendid if you could create your very own ringtones ? With PocketFuzz you can do just that. The site is aimed at independent artists as a means to get their tunes out.
Fans can choose what portion of a song they want to use as a ringtone. The ringtone can be sent directly to a cell phone through the site or though widgets. The tones can also be embedded into social networking sites like MySpace and Facebook. Bands can sign up for free; the company will take a cut of the earnings. If for instance an artist sells a ringtone for 99 cents they´ll get 25 cents or about 50% of the net revenue (if they sign up before June 30th of this year). Text and pic messaging are also available to fans. Supported providers include Cingular, Sprint and Verizon.
