Yesterday I installed StatusNet as our internal microblogging system at troii. I was very happy to see that it works very well with the tools I already use for my twitter account: ÜberTwitter on my BlackBerry and twhirl under Windows. Configuring ÜberTwitter with our StatusNet installation was very simple, I just had to select MDS as [...]

After giving up hope just the day before I was surprised on Friday when the local shop of my mobile carrier called me and told me that the new BlackBerry Bold 9700 was available. I packed my things together, drove down to the city and grabbed it. Now here it is lying right next to [...]

Yesterday a friend of mine told me that he received an error message while trying to install the BlackBerry Desktop Manager 5.0.1 under Windows 7 64 Bit. I told him that the Desktop Manager installed and runs correctly on my system (which is the same) so we tried to find out what caused his problem. [...]

Today I decided to make a complete backup of all the applications currently installed on my BlackBerry. I just bought Sid Meier’s Pirates! for BlackBerry from Concrete Software. This game is the greatest game I ever played on a mobile device so far and at the same the the best remake of an old classic [...]

I wrote my first twitter update nearly two years ago but within the last six months the frequency of my updates increased a lot. This is mainly because I found some useful BlackBerry clients for Twitter. The first one I tried was TwitterBerry from Orangatame. TwitterBerry is a plain client that allows to do everything [...]

On Friday I had the opportunity to meet and talk to some RIM employees at the BlackBerry Technical Seminar for IT Professionals in Vienna. I attended mostly to Track C which focused on application development for BlackBerry devices. Tariq Tahir and Michael Weitzel did a great job and learned a lot about the fundamentals behind [...]
