The mobile VoIP wizz kid, fring, could never be accused of laziness. Having recently rolled out abunch of updates to the Windows Mobile version of the fring application as well as launching iPhone and iPod touch variants, the company has now decided to go the whole hog and release the fringAPI, opening the fring core network and mobile client to developers so that almost any web application can be deployed to the fring community.
One of the benefits of this is that any new apps developed by third parties in conjunction with the fringAPI will be automatically enhanced with fring's core features such as presence, talk, chat, file transfer, auto-roaming and all the rest of it.
A new developer site containing the fringAPI documentation and a simple fringAdd-on example has been launched for developers to get started with (though the fringAPI is only available for the fring client on Symbian S60 9.2 at the moment with support for more platforms promised soon). On the user side the coming weeks will see the release of several examples of fringAdd-ons for you to play about with.
The full catalog with all the new developed fringAdd-ons will launch towards the end of July.
