As with probably everyone in my generation, I have had a cell phone for quite a while now. My first one was secured back in my freshman year of college, and I have since gone through both multiple phones and multiple companies. However, one thing I have never really taken advantage of with any of those phones is multimedia connectivity, such as downloading and viewing images and video, or listening to music, or whatnot. Offhand, it has always seemed too complicated, too slow, and too expensive. That said, there appear to be a few more companies these days that are trying to make this kind of thing a little easier.

One such company goes by the name of CellFish (do not ask me where the name came from), and is dedicated to making it easier for cell phone users to upload and download just about all forms of media from and to their phones. The company even gets your computer in the mix as well, letting you shoot files straight from it to your online account. In fact, the image below this paragraph was uploaded from my computer, using their "Digital Locker" (think of it as your online "My Documents"). The process was quite straightforward - simply select the file on your computer, name it appropriately, add a description, and write in a few tags, and then press the button, and away it goes. Once the file has been uploaded, anyone can view it in your "locker" (assuming you made it public), and then they can send it to their phones, either from the aforementioned "locker", or you can even do it by pressing the "Send to Phone" button in the corner of the image below. Go ahead. Give it a shot. You know you want to.

In addition to the basic things like images, CellFish also covers Free Ringtones, and even videos, should your phone be capable of supporting those, and its interface makes finding and downloading those files remarkably easy. The best part is that most of the images, video, and ring tones on the webpage is free, though, if you want the really good stuff, you are more than welcome to send them some cash and get a premium subscription. And for those aspiring film and video artistes, uploading your items is just as easy, since they let you do it directly from your computer through an easy-to-use interface, directly from a webpage using an equally easy system, or directly from your phone, using a very easy-to-remember email address.

With probably thousands of cell-phone-compatible images, videos, and Free Ringtones on this site already, and more being added by people like you and me every day, this webpage stands to make a sizeable impact on the community of people who use their phones for multimedia-related activities. For those of you with the phones, and the bandwidth, head on over and take a look... you might find something you like.
