Fring has updated its multi-IM network and VoIP client to sing along push notifications found in the iPhone OS 3.0. This means that you will be able to stay “Online” even while you’re not using Fring.
So whenever someone calls you or send you a message, you’ll receive a beep sound along with a pop-up window, telling you that your friend is trying to contact you. Clicking on that pop-up window will get you back to Fring, straight to the relevant window.
If you find this annoying after some time, simply “go offline” and that’s it. AppStore link is here, and after the break comes a short video introducing the new feature. Enjoy!

Dusan Belic
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.
