More instant messaging for BlackBerry
November 12th, 2008
This is a up to date screenshot of the “Instant Messaging” folder on my BlackBerry Bold. From left to right:
- BlackBerry Messenger - classic, no BlackBerry is complete without this one. My most uses IM at the moment. Safes a lot of SMS costs.
- twibble - one big plus of using twitter is that it allows me to publish from my BlackBerry to the web - therefor I am using twibble, I tried twitterberry but had some problems with it
- facebook - the BlackBerry facebook app allows me to make status updates and upload fotos directly from the Bold
- iSkoot - on my search for a free BlackBerry Skype client today I found iSkoot, great Skype client, I am using it mostly for chat, though voice over IP works too
- ICQ - allows me to stay in touch with my old ICQ friends. Provided by RIM directly under mobile.blackberry.com
- MSN Messenger - another native BlackBerry app provided by RIM
With all those instant messengers added the BlackBerry Bold really is a communication monster - I am very satisfied with this device.
