The RIM Twitter Team Needs Your Opinion!

By Bla1ze on 25 Jan 2010 09:32 am

The good folks over at the Inside BlackBerry Blogs, who also run the BlackBerry Twitter team, are asking users for their opinion on their official Twitter accounts. They need to choose a background for the accounts and that of course is where you all come in. Since, the BlackBerry twitter accounts would be visited by you, they simply need to know which one of the two shown above you all prefer.

The one on the left is that of the @BlackBerry account. The one on the right is that of the @BlackBerryBlog account. Personally, I like the one on the left and I'll be tweeting my vote to them later, but how about you? Tweet them to let them know, or head on over to the Inside BlackBerry blogs and comment. And don't hesitate to let them know any other suggestions you might have as well on how to better their use of Twitter.

If you haven't already, don't forget to drop by our Twitter page at twitter.com/crackberry. Also remember you can hit up the @crackberry Twelper team with any and all BlackBerry questions by sending a Twitter mention to @crackberry.

I'd much rather them concentrate on bringing a better browser/ui than deciding what twitter background to use. lol

While I agree...you have to consider these folks have no hands in that business. These folks are the "front facing" folks who are there to help out with what they can, when they can, so again...while I agree some folks at RIM have better things to do then work on Twitter.

It's not any of these folks jobs to worry about browser develoment, they're just trying to have some fun at work, no need to harsh on them for internal browser workings :)

Yeah, I know... I just wanted to poke some fun at them ;) With that said, I'd choose the one on the left.

I agree, I like the one on the left.

I think RIM needs to focus on stuff like Micro SD encryption, so we can use SD cards for applications. User Interface needs updated, the use of widgets would make things easy, quick, and very personal. The Tourch Browser needs to be released. People will be leaving RIM to jump on the Android/iPhone bandwagon if something is done quickly, with the browser.... twitter is nice... but it's like the icing that goes on top the cake and RIM is still deciding on Betty Crocker, Duncan Hiens or make it from scratch.

My vote goes for the one on the left.

cadman Jan 25, 2010 at 9:55 am

FTW.....

moyjoy Jan 25, 2010 at 10:23 am

I like the right.

BDR529 Jan 25, 2010 at 10:36 am

So it's proven here that 4 out of 5 Crackberry members are left-leaning voters! lol

gafly Jan 25, 2010 at 10:36 am

Right!

updater Jan 25, 2010 at 11:10 am

And let users choose which background to use when the mood changes? And please introduce user definable API feature, or unless RIM is planning to set up servers for transfering twitter messages like how Viigo, Snaptu and J1ck do, otherwise guys in China won't be able to use this upcoming goodies.

Prefer the left one.

jfs101 Jan 25, 2010 at 12:25 pm

I like the one on the right.

Anguish Jan 25, 2010 at 12:54 pm

The one of the left looks like a mess. Literally. The one on the right is orderly. Thus, the one on the right is preferable.

Everything on the BB looks the same! They're always straight lines with stripes of color to separate things, and that's getting slightly annoying!!

I HATEEEEEEE the bubbles, so if this is our other alternative, I say go with the left!.. it's cute!

Orrr... both options for the people who like the "straight and narrow" look of their BB's!

zarzamora_hermosa Jan 25, 2010 at 1:23 pm

The right is ergonomic, clean, and symmetric, everything the left one is not :)

TaylorFox Jan 25, 2010 at 2:00 pm

The one on the left, definitely

sivan Jan 25, 2010 at 2:10 pm

If they go with the left I'm going to smash my BB against the wall.

Lobout Jan 25, 2010 at 4:04 pm

Err i mean the one on the left.

xolanir Jan 25, 2010 at 4:49 pm

Well personally I prefer the one on the left. It looks more like a client that is intended for a younger client group. It's got that "disorganized-organized" look. Design wise it's simple and appealing.
