Wednesday, March 3, 2010 at 2:26PM The award winning instant message application now has a free version supported by ads. If your a light users of any of these chat clients; MSN, Yahoo, Google talk, AIM, Jabber, ICQ, Facebook, Myspace, Skype , and Twitter; IM+ consolidates all these into one application. Some of the above chat applications are available as separate applications. But IM+ saves space and time by putting them all into one program.
Wednesday, March 3, 2010 at 2:14PM Recently discovered and available to all BlackBerry users running messenger 5.0+.
To get these icons you will have to do just a bit of work.
1. copy the below images ( they show up as just black dots/squares on pc, but when view on BlackBerry you will see them.)
2. Paste into a email and send it your your phone.
3. Open email and they will still be dots or black squares
4. Copy and paste into messenger and they will all show up.
5. Find which one you want, select and copy.
6. Go to options and then autotxt.
7. Paste icon and create a shortcut.
8. Repeat for each icon you want to save.
I will admit it’s very time consuming if you want to keep a lot of the icons. I do not know why RIM doesn’t make some sort of interface for accessing these icons. But for now it’s what we have to work with.
Monday, February 15, 2010 at 12:56PM Bolt launched a big update to their BlackBerry alternative browser. Bolt brings some missing functions that the built in browser does not have-yet!. They have updated to version 1.7.
Some of the new features include:
I would encourage anyone to try out Bolt. Get it here: Bolt 1.7
Monday, February 15, 2010 at 12:42PM The new Google Buzz feature has a lot of people Buzzing! Some love it, others-not so much. As of right now, Google makes no built in provisions or applications for using Google buzz on your BlackBerry. The built in web browser isn’t enough to access it. However there is a work around.
It is pretty simple. You will need to have Bolt browser ( http://boltbrowser.com/home.html )or Opera Mini version 5 or above ( http://www.opera.com/mini/next/ ).
Then just enter this address, https://m.google.com/app/buzz and click on “ continue on an unsupported device”. Click on menu and then just log in with your buzz info.
Every BlackBerry owner should have Bolt or Opera mini 5 installed in my opinion.

Friday, February 12, 2010 at 11:59AM Lots of Beta’s and twitter news for BlackBerry. I think Beta is a cop out to keep users from being upset over bugs and broken applications. But this is how tech works sometimes.
If you can not get Social Scope ( The best in my opinion ) and do not want to try leaked RIM application ( see previous post), then Ubertwitter is for you.
Here is a list of changes:
Get it here: Ubertwitter 7
Friday, February 12, 2010 at 11:48AM The install files for the RIM twitter application have leaked. You can grab a copy for OTA install or desktop manager install.
Caution! Some users have reported java errors on the 9700 series. The best way to install would be via desktop manager.
Credit goes to Berryreview.com for breaking the story and iExplorers.com for hosting the OTA links.
Thursday, February 11, 2010 at 1:28PM Rim official Twitter application went beta today. Invites are being sent out for anyone who wants to try it out but they seem to be not accepting everyone.
It looks a lot like the Social Scope application. I guess it is safe to say Twitter has hit the big time if RIM is designing unique application for it.
Stop by this link to try to get a beta invite: RIM Twitter beta
Otherwise you just have to wait till it goes official; which looks to be in about a month.
Thursday, February 11, 2010 at 1:11PM Another great looking and very functional theme. At first glance it looks clean and minimalistic. But underneath is a host of features.
