SBG BalckBerry App!!

[Tom McGarry.]

Hey fellow chromies,

                                I was just playing arround with my BB Storm and browsing the different applications and it got me thinking. (Insert Jokes Here) Any way I know that from my previous thread about cell phones that several of you, including the "T" man himself have a BlackBerry phone, so why not create a SBG BlackBerry App?

                               I belive I seen on the www somewhere (it might be on the BlackBerry site itself) where you can creat applications for the BB.

What do you guys think?

That would be cool, but I don't know what the app would do.

Updates on the forum discussions, the ability to reply (not sure if that one is possible) Sort of like the site itself, so we can read all of the topics no matter where we are.

Or how about a BB Theme with the SBG logo as the screen background. The mail box could be a bald head (when empty) and a head with hair ( when we have mail )

I never thought this idea through, it just seemed cool, I'm not sure what the App limitations are!

Better yet, maybe just create an SBG icon for the BB that will take you directly to the forum?  I have several "apps", one for example is the Chicago Tribune,  that when I select it, takes me directly to the mobile site...

You can build a basic app here: http://www.buildanapp.com

Looks pretty cool, and, most importantly, it is cross-platform. It looks very promising. I haven't used it yet, but will be testing and evaluating the program for some clients shortly.

An SBG app is a great idea. Plus there's the added promotional value for your sponsors.

Yeah, if nothing else it could just be a "quick link" to the website.  Kinda like FaceBook.
