Palringo is a handy instant messaging thanks to which you'll be permanently connected to your friends wherever you are. The BlackBerry version of the app has been discontinued for the moment, but the developer is busy working on a new version.
As it's a cross-platform client, Palringo lets you log on to different networks at the same time (Live Messenger, AOL Instant Messenger, ICQ, Google Talk and more) and chat with all your contacts, no matter what network they belong to.
The good thing about Palringo is that it's not limited to text messages. You can also send pictures and recorded messages to your contacts, thus enriching your chats with multimedia elements. The only drawback is that they're not really sent to the device, but uploaded to the Palringo website, where you can check them out via the link you receive.
Generally speaking, Palringo is a bit short of options. It features just the necessary tools to add new networks and contacts, set your status and chat with friends, nothing else. In any case it's a handy tool to keep in touch with friends from any place in the world, as long as there's 3G coverage or a Wifi spot available nearby.
If you can't stand being without your IM buddies for more than a few hours, install Palringo on your phone and you'll be able to chat with them anywhere.
