Vringo adds Discovery Channel video content

Video ringtone sharing community provider Vringo announced the addition of Discovery Channel video ringtones to its content offering. Vringo subscribers may now share video clips of volcanoes, bees, skyrockets and related natural phenomena via their mobile handsets--subscribers may personalize their own video ringtones, a.k.a. "Vringos," by downloading free excerpts from Discovery Channel programming.

"Vringo is thrilled to be able to add Discovery Channel content to the Vringo collection of video ringtones," said Vringo CEO Jon Medved. "From sunset scenes to raging elephants and brewing storms, there's something for everyone--and it's all free. By expanding our catalog of video ringtones, we're helping Vringo users become more creative in how they communicate--another step toward making Personalization 2.0 a reality."
