fringME! says Alex Boylan

A few days ago we told you about the ground breaking Internet based reality series “Around the world for free” which is also broadcast weekly via CBS.

Some of our users like myvideo.co.za jumped on board and got a great interview, many others did not, o well as the saying goes, “you snooze you loose”.

So this week the show got a unique twist with the addition of a great new feature. The addition of a fringME! widget has taken this show to a new level, and already on the first day since the launch the widget has delivered results.

But what makes the fringME! widget so special?

The fringME! widget will allow users to find Alex Boylan (better know for his winning role in CBS’s “the amazing race - series 2) via GPS on Google Earth maps and chat live to him wherever he is in the world. This has never before been done on any reality TV or Internet series.

When told about fring Alex was like… what the fring?

He was very keen to give it a try and set it up on the site, however his handset was not fring supported and so fring decided to come on board and made a Nokia N95 available for Alex for the duration of the show.

The fringME! widget is now live and ready via the internet at aroundtheworldforfree.com

So if adventure reality shows are your thing and you would love to change the outcome of this show, track Alex and Zsolt live as they cross Africa and the world and when they enter your neck of the woods, change their path by messaging them and telling them where to go and what to do. Remember what you tell them can affect the outcome. Lets not message them unnecessarily.

What you waiting for, go change the outcome of this great new show today!
