fring is a mobile application that empowers users to rethink how they use their mobile devices by facilitating interaction and communication with their internet communities while on the go.

fring unlocks the full potential of the mobile, enabling fringsters to make free and low cost calls over the mobile internet. fringsters can choose whether they connect via 3G (using the data within their existing subscription agreement rather than traditional GSM airtime minutes) or through WiFi at home, in the office or at the thousands of “hotspots” around, making the mobile calls themselves completely free.
fring can be set to automatically switch between the best available connection type such as 3G or WiFi.

fringsters enjoy real-time, live instant message chat from their mobiles instead of SMS with each other and all of their favorite internet communities, such as Skype, MSN Messenger, Google Talk, ICQ, Twitter, Yahoo! and AIM.
