Write This Way
As the mobile experience becomes more and more personalized with custom ringtones and UIs and wallpapers, service providers are seeking more ways that their users can tailor their phones to themselves. After all, in an increasingly competitive market every company is looking for that vital edge with the younger demographic. Now, one Korean telecom has created a way for you to send SMS and Text messages in your own handwriting.
Telecoms Korea reports the following:
A new SMS allows users to send a handwriting message over mobile networks. KTF announced the launch of Font of Your Own service.
Unlike existing SMS giving a choice of ready-made fonts, Font of Your Own is the first service that allows users to create personalized fonts for message writing.
To use Font of Your Own service, users have to download necessary applications and set up the idle screen before opening the folder and generate the font by sending the mobile photograph of 33 handwritten letters.
Download of applications and registration of fonts is free of data use fee. Customers can create or change fonts on the PC, using a font editor program.
We’ve come a long way from being able to choose between three colors of princess phones. I imagine soon our phones will be like our dogs…but will they grow to resemble us more every day, or will WE grow to resemble THEM?
