May 11, 2013 BlackBerry Jam: A developer preview from a developer [Weekend Coder]

Alongside the consumer focused BlackBerry Live Conference is the BlackBerry Jam Americas developer conference. We all expect most of the exciting announcements to happen during the “Live“ side of the conference but there are some sessions that could lead to some interesting insight of the future of BlackBerry 10. So in this “Conference Special Edition” of the Weekend Coder series, I thought I’d highlight a few topics from a developer’s point of view. As well as give some conference pointers and tips for any fellow developers attending.

First it should be noted that there is a good spread of introductory level sessions in whatever platform you choose to develop (Air, Android, HTML/WebWorks, and Native) and you should definitely attend if you are new to that platform to get a good overview. I don’t expect you’d hear anything earth shattering in those sessions. Going a bit deeper, you’ll see there a wide variety of topics and a complete list of sessions can be found here. There you can see the more newsworthy goodies are in more advanced sections. Here’s my breakdown of the ones I think have a good chance of interesting news:

BlackBerry Jam Europe has drawn to a close and what a super event it was. This was my first time at a developer event of this scale and I must say that BlackBerry did an amazing job from start to finish. The venue for the Jam was organized to perfection. All the staff, both BlackBerry and outside agencies, were extremely efficient and as far as I could see there were no glitches over the two day festivities.

We have mentioned SayIt a couple of times in the past - first for BlackBerry smartphones and then for the BlackBerry PlayBook. The voice recognition application is now available for BlackBerry 10 and over at BB10 Jam in Amsterdam we got to sit down with the developer who talked us through the app. We suffered a little with our internet connection unfortunately and some results took a while but the actual voice recognition was pretty quick.
