UIA Sighting: Blackberry Software


I heard of a cool software called "Zebra Crossing." But the person that was demoing it was on Google Android software and I have a Blackberry. I did a search on my computer find it and eureka! After several searches I found it. Ok now how to I get the information on my Blackberry to test it? Humm...this is a problem for anyone with a smart phone. I had to do more searching to find the picture of the link above. iTunes found a way to solve this by creating the app store. Blackberry created an app store butf ocuses more on getting money by featuring apps for money instead of having a one stop shop.

If I need software, I can go to iTunes. But Blackberry software is still scattered all over the web. When you find one you want to use, their isn't a clear and elegant way to install it test on a Blackberry. This is easy to change, let's see how long it takes.

  1. Not long. I went to the Blackberry app store this week. Instead of showing and highlighting apps for money, they are now highlighting free apps more.

  2. It has now finally caught fire. The idea was a good one. And instead of focusing on only paid apps. Free apps are now seen more. It sounds like it only took time. Now thinking of it, of course. The apps to pay for would come be the first ones to use this medium.
