Mosquitones

February 13, 2007

Check out this website. It allows you to download high-frequency ringtones — “Mosquitones” — that are purportedly inaudible to people aged 30 and above. (I had no trouble hearing “normal” and “high” but not “super” and “ultra.”)

I sort of feel the term mosquitone is a misnomer, though, as real mosquitoes give off infinitely more annoying sounds..
