Mobile VoIP provider TringMe has made available an API that will allow developers to create rich web-based voice applications or standalone applications that complement, enhance and leverage TringMe’s existing functionality.

The best part about the TringMe API is that it is simple enough for any developer to quickly understand and get going. Developers can create their own Adobe Flash, Flex or AIR application based on TringMe’s standards based APIs in a matter of couple of hours. Given the powerful functionality of Adobe Flash and the ease of use of TringMe’s APIs, developers will be able to produce compelling voice enabled apps using Adobe’s – Flash, Flex or AIR – technologies. For example, developers can create a fully-functional desktop phone on top of TringMe APIs using Adobe AIR technology.

This is definitely a great step in the right direction for TringMe. Opening up access to their platform will allow the service to gain greater use and of course with that comes more users and possibly revenues.

TringMe has TringPhone that allows their service to be expanded to over 50 countries. TringPhone is a flash based SIP phone which can be configured with any VoIP provider. TringPhone enables affordable pure web-based telephony that can work via any VoIP/SIP provider. This give the user to choose the best available VoIP provider based on his/her criteria (quality, cost, reliability etc) and switch between VoIP providers without changing the calling interface.

TringPhone essentially allows user to call anybody in the world at an affordable rate; while TringMe allows one to embed widgets in blog/site, so that anybody can call up directly from the site unlike Jaxtr.

Calls to US, Canada, China, Hong Kong, Ireland, Singapore, Taiwan, European countries are as low as 1 cent, Japan and Korea are 2 cents and to India is merely 5 cents.
