Fring has announced that their Java ME-based app, minifring, joins its older, more powerful brother for smartphones to include support for add-ons.
Among the first fringAdd-ons supported are Facebook, Gmail notifier, Orkut and Yandex.mail notifier. More add-ons will eventually hit the fring Add-ons catalog as developers release them.
To get fring Add-ons on your feature phone, you’ll need to download the latest version of minifring, first. Afterwards, go to “Settings” (“More” on Sony Ericsson handsets, or “Options” on Nokia phones) and then “Manage add-ons.” From there you will be able to install all the add-ons you want. It’s that easy!

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
