Twitter rolls out official BlackBerry app

it seems Twitter develpers aren't happy about some of this stuff

We dont now how to us twitter please help us

Smooth and no problem so far. Official Twitter app for Blackberry is better than other apps developed to access Twitter. Good job!

Yes I will be tweeting from my phone with the new app. As far as iPhones and Android's they're for kids. They're constantly changing and bragging about apps they're just toys for the me too crowd. Blackberry's are for those of us who do REAL work.

I love the twitter app for BB, smooth interface, aesthetically pleasing and user-friendly. Will most definitely be tweeting from my BB now.

It better be great to compete UberTwitter, which already integrates with BB photos, video, and GPS.

I feel silly now... I thought Twitterberry was the offical Blackberry App?

I gave up my BB when I got a good look at the Android-based phones. RIM needs to update and get aggressive again. Right now the only thing they do like no other is email... and I have apps on my Android that make up for that.

Don't get me wrong, I was a HUGE BB fan... but much like the iPhone (of which I wasn't a fan) the novelty is wearing thin, getting dated, and needs a refresh.

Notifications when "you're" Twitter user name is mentioned.

Good one, cnn.

To Ben: why dod you find it necessary to denigrate the choice of others? You like your BB and other like their iPhone and 'Droid. What's the problem? It sounds like you just need a reason to re-assure yourself that your choice is right.

Are you that insecure?

bb has a leg up on data security too

@ Truth @ Ben

Hes probably just a fanboy. Last I checked I could do everything on my WM phone for work AND play. When was the last yime YOU played Ben?

I didn't buy the blackberry for work and don't need it.I bought it just for the Social Networking and Love it.

@Truth – iPhone and Droid or Android phones are toys because all you ever hear talked about is the apps. No one seems to care if they're really good phones. iPhone users complain about there data connections and blame AT&T service, I suspect some of the problems is that the iPhone is a lousy PHONE but a pretty good computer. As for the Android why would you buy something that Google and the carriers can't make up their minds on which operating system version to use 1.5, 1.6, 2.0, 2.1 pick one the apps for one version may not work with the other.

@Weapondrift – I had a HTC Touch Pro, the Blackberry beats it hands down.

Yes, I look forward to a better Twitter app designed to intergrate with BB...

Thanks!

Just downloaded and it seems to work well; I never liked UberTwitter on BB anyway. I just wish that TweetDeck would do a BB app. This is my fav on PC/Mac and it works very well on iPhone.

I tried the new app over the weekend and quickly re-installed the UT app for BB.

The Twitter app for BB is gravely lacking items such as Twittlonger, "Friend Finder", etc.. The interface is cool but there were too many "crashes" .. I am hoping they incorporate these items soon; until then, UT it is..

I completely agree that Blackberry is primarily a work tool and secondarily a social networking device. I had a Blackberry for several years and recently moved over to the iPhone. The BB made me more productive but the iPhone has increased my social networking activities dramatically. My husband is using the Twitter for Blackberry app and he loves it. It's a huge improvement over previous apps for BB such as UberTwitter and Twitterberry.

Best app for Twitter thus far, and it is free. Thanks RIM & Twitter for bring this to us, just wish it would have been sooner!

While I loved the smooth interface it lacks in features compared to UberTwitter. I ended up deleting it and switching back to UberTwitter. The RIM app made no use of GPS capabilities. I also like the way UberTwitter incorporates features such as TwittLonger, which allows you to Tweet more than 140 characters.

a really good app, especially as it's just beta. some features are still missing, like tweeting videos directly, but it looks promising and could soon replace UberTwitter...

BlackBerry is a great tool for tweeting, thanks to the keypad. personally I think that BB and Twitter are made for each other 😉

ps: the notification of mentions is top!

Replying to Ben: Your comment seems to contradict itself. You claim that specific smartphones are toys, and people don't talk about how good the phone is. While you give a statement to this effect about the iPhone, you said nothing about the quality of an Android based phone like the Droid. You mearely criticized the OS. The phone system for the Droid on Verizon is the best cell phone I've ever used, and the Verizon network is the reason I went with that phone in the first place. Now will it be usuable in Europe? No it won't. So I won't carry it for the 1 week a year that I'm there vacationing. I'd rather use a temp phone for my vacation time than sacrifice use the other 51 weeks a year for something that doesn't really suit my needs. If travelling abroad is a concern, then I'd say a Blackberry is a best choice. But if I'm positioned in the US/canada almost the entire year, I'd rather go with a phone that meets my needs here. Just my own 2 cents.

I've been using TwitterBerry by Orangatame for as long as I can remember. I'm not sure who is behind the times, Twitter for not launching this till now or BB for not pushing for its development.

I downloaded the new twitter app as soon as it was launched. I love UberTwitter, but this is by far a better improvement. The only two things I miss from UberTwitter is the old RT feature and how a username pops up once you enter "@". Overall great app, but still a few things that could use tweaking.

Love my BB. I've been tweeting all along on it. The new app sounds kind of cool, just more updated.

"Notifications when you're Twitter user name is mentioned" ?
Come on CNN, let's get some proper grammar on here.

yes yes congrats to RIM and Twitter great move with this app for Blackberry...Love my my Blackberry even more now...

"Notifications when you're Twitter user name is mentioned"
woops

BB tour is the best phone i've ever owned. now with the new OS update and the Twitter app – I'm more in love with it than I was before. i agree with other posters, iphone is all about games/apps – used for entertainment, and BB is great for work as the primary function and social networking as secondary. i don't need 1,000 apps on my BB, i'm already on it enough with FB, BBM, gchat, AIM, pandora, emails, txts, and now twitter.

I really like the new Twitter interface and how it replicates the web twitter!
Twitter has never been that seamless!

Proud owner of a Blackberry Curve 8900.

I downloaded it yesterday on my blackberry and my wifes! I've posted 3 times already from my blackberry. I love it.

I love using the new Blackberry application. It is so much easier than going to the regular twitter on Blackberry. Thanks to whoever created this application. God bless!

This is so long overdue. The other Twitter apps for BB, of which UberTwitter and Twitterberry were the best, were far lacking in simulating all the things you could do on the main Twitter site. That is what makes the BB Facebook app so immersive, and its high time that RIM made Twiiter for BB as user friendly. I think it will greatly increase the number of BB users who move to Twitter as they get sick of all the fluff that Facebook drowns you with now. Since I have a great Twitter app, I would have no qualms deactivating my Facebook account. Twitter expands on what was so awesome about Facebook in the first place....the status updates with you, your family, and friends and sharing photos and networking with them. Twitter has all of that, without you getting constant updates that 'so and so became a fan of not being a fan of other people being fans of something a celebrity is a fan of' or that 'so and so scored 17,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 points on Bejeweled.'

I used Twitter for blackberry Friday through Saturday but felt uncomfortable with it enough for me to reinstall UT alongside it. I like the fliud interface and the mentions... the droop is the twitlonger ... a minus for me. I do hope this is fixed in a next build or something.

Now on the iPhone-vs-BB spats, i dont know why people even bother to compare the two devices. One is so obviously for kids (oops!... entertainment, sorry) and the other is purely business-oriented... the BB's social networking integration, i see as a plus. Can you imagine board execs of a major corporation, say, Shell for example file into a meeting and everyone is plopping an iPhone on the table???... yes, i know what precisely is wrong with that image, the phones should have been Blackberry phones... Go figure!

There is nothing like bb and i love its app called berry snooper http://www.pepper.pk/berrysnooper used to save bb from being lost stolen or theft using gps sms or email check this great app

Hey, thanks for the ietsrnet. I'm pretty excited by the idea of rappers using B-Rhymes. I did a little dance when I saw MC Frontalot had tweeted me.The first version of the mobile app is going to rely on this webserver to get data for each and every query, to the dismay of people sans data plans. The problem is, this thing involves a lot of data. Way more data than a normal dictionary. The database backing it is like 160MB, which I don't think is insurmountable, but it'll take some work to get it down to something reasonable. That is more work than a first version.As for Android, I guess I missed it above. It's defintely in the plan.

I don't understand blackberry. I don't understand why people use those phones. I myself i'm also not a big Twitter person. So i
really i'm not to excited about this article. However i love commenting on CNN's posts. This is an old post, boy have times changed.

I do love the way you have framed this particular difficulty and it does indeed offer us some fodder for thought. However, coming from everything that I have seen, I simply wish when the actual remarks stack on that individuals keep on point and in no way get started on a soap box associated with some other news of the day. Anyway, thank you for this superb piece and whilst I can not concur with it in totality, I value your perspective.

I have been browsing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.
