fring - free video calls, IM: Good try, but needs better UI

[rufioxiii]

Fring allows you to connect to just about every single kind and source of communication.

Unfortunately, the layout is confusing, and does not give the option to change the interface to better suit your needs.

The real thing that ruined this for me is that I couldn't separate my contacts from service to service. Unless I knew every contact in my AIM from my MSN or Yahoo accounts, everything became a muddled mess.

If these holes can be fixed you have a very well set and created communication HUB from which you can access all your accounts and keep in touch no matter where you are.

All in all, a good try, but needs a new UI and better filters.

As someone who never goes over my minutes or text allowance can someone tell me how this would be useful to me?
