Frengo today announced a new OpenSocial Toolkit. The company says the software extends the functionality of social networking by allowing developers to build complex applications on of their API.

“Our services on Facebook attract millions of users and we are excited to support OpenSocial networks and the thousands of developers building applications across that platform,” said Mahi de Silva, Frengo CEO. “We learned very quickly that social networking has no geographic boundaries and are especially excited about social networks extending the reach of fun, social experiences to places where the Internet is more likely to be accessed on a mobile phone than a PC. Mobility brings a level of intimacy and convenience, making it easy for people to stay connected in ways not possible on a PC.”

Frengo also has some nice options for users of Hi5.

“As we launch third-party applications to hi5 members, we’re pleased to include ones that are already mobile enabled,” said Ramu Yalamanchi, CEO of hi5 Networks, Inc., the leading social network in over 20 nations, a founding adopter of OpenSocial, and the 8th most-trafficked website in the world. “We think it’s great that Frengo’s OpenSocial mobile toolkit is helping to bring mobile applications to our 80 million registered members.”

Look for more out of Frengo in coming months.
