BlackBerry To Create A ‘Social Network’
July 13, 2009 · Print This Article
blackberry is said to launch its own social network tomorrow. First I’m not certain why that thing on the screen shot would be called a social network - it looks like a forum. Apparently, users are said to be able to rate apps, hence the “social network” aspect (so Netflix is a social network?). The good thing is that the system will filter out subject matter that is not related the blackberry that you currently own or care about.According to some, that project is designed to help blackberry with the relative lack of success for its app store.
It seems to me that developers defer developing on blackberry as much as they can considering they often hit java performance problems, graphics acceleration is non-existent or not exposed and the memory management is poor. What about fixing that? It would help get high-quality apps that would drive downloads and usage. This won’t be fixed with some Marketing magic.
