    We already saw the new Facebook v3.0.0.15 update roll out earlier today with a new BBM connectivity feature. RIM has also let us know that more popular BlackBerry apps will be updated to include BBM connectivity. Some of the latest updates and features for users include:

    Facebook and Twitter: Automatically share your Facebook status or latest Tweet with your BBM friends right from within the app.
    BlackBerry Travel: Share your travel plans and flight changes directly with select BBM contacts or with your entire BBM community.
    BlackBerry App World: Easily update your BBM profile to let friends know about the great new app you’ve just downloaded on BlackBerry App World.
    BBM Music: Recommend friends right from within the BBM Music app itself, making it easier for you to connect and expand your music collection.

    Updates have also been made to BBM itself, including a new selection of animated avatars, a simpler way of updating one’s personal message in their profile, and the ability for users to quickly send voice notes.

    Check out the press release for complete details on the updates. We'll keep you updated on the moment more updates start rolling out. If you happen to notice a update before we do, post it in the comments!

    One of the best social networking sites has finally been released out of Beta Zone. Facebook for BlackBerry version 3.0.0.15 is now available in the App World for everyone. BlackBerry users will definitely appreciate and will surely enjoy the improvements of this new version.

    New features of Facebook for BlackBerry smartphones 3.0 include:
    • BBM Connected App Integration where you can share your FB status to your BBM contacts right within the app
    • New Facebook Publisher, Share with BBM Contact
    • UI Discoverability Improvements
    • Improved Facebook Notifications
    • User-Friendly Error Messages


    When Facebook 3.0 was released to Beta Zone members only, some did not appreciate the changes due to issues like duplicate posts and others. However, not all of the changes are negative and I do believe that's the reason why it is now out for everyone in App World. So head over the App World and try this new Facebook 3.0 and do not forget to share "what's on your mind".

    BlackBerry Messenger has been updated to version 6.2.0.40 in the Beta Zone. Honestly not much to see here folks, but as always you will want to update and let RIM know your fixes and findings. There is a known issue that you will want to take note of:

    • Clicking the trackpad in the inline display name or personal message field opens the "My Profile" screen for right-to-left languages.

    Head on over to the Beta Zone and update to version 6.2.0.40.

    Alec Saunders' Official Statement Regarding Sideloading On BlackBerry PlayBook And BlackBerry 10

    Alec Saunders, Senior VP of Developer Relations at RIM, has gotten a lot of attention in the media over the last 24 hours about some tweets he wrote regarding sideloading apps on future builds of the PlayBook OS. Today, he has released a statement to clarify those tweets and reassure the developer community that sideloading is not going anywhere as a dev tool, but simply being modified to prevent piracy.

    In a new blog post on the Inside BlackBerry Dev Blog, Saunders explains how starting with the next build on the PlayBook (we're assuming a 2.0.1.xxxx build) there will be a new feature implemented that will encrypt purchased apps to prevent them from being shared with non-paying parties.

    This is great news for devs as not only will they not lose a valuable tool, but will also gain more security over where their apps are being loaded.

    Since I decided to start reading the Hunger Games books on my BlackBerry, after the awesome sale they had, the Kobo app has been getting a good work out. I definitely feel it has needed some bug fixes to address some zooming/scrolling issues and it seems like this new update might address that.

    Kobo v4.2.1 is available in App World now so if you're an avid reader, make sure you update Kobo right away.
