Cell Phone Ringtones Helping With New Year's Resolutions

by KYW’s Hadas Kuznits

Ever wish you could have a constant reminder to keep your New Year's resolutions? Now you can be reminded to keep that resolution every time you get a cell phone call.

Resolutions are difficult to keep:

"Well, the aim is to keep it throughout the whole year."

(Kuznits:) "If you had help, would that make it easier?"

"What type of help?"

Thumbplay.com is offering New Year's resolution reminder ringtones:

(Kuznits:) "Do you ever download ringtones?"

"Yes."

So if your resolution is:

"To give up smoking and to go to the gym more."

Your ringtone might go something like:

"Quit smoking!  Cough, cough.  No, really!"

"I think it would definitely be helpful, yeah!  A constant reminder every time your cell phone rings."

"I'd do it if it was free."

(Kuznits:) "If you could record your own ringtone, what would it say?"

"Time to study!"

"Spend money a little more wisely."

"Put the credit card away."

"It would tell me, 'Keep your head up.  Don't stop what you're doing -- just be yourself and don't hang around the wrong people.' "

(Kuznits:) "A little positive thinking there?"

"Yes!"

"If I really knew how to use my phone properly I would!"
