GetGlue Beta

GetGlue is a social networking site that lets you check-in, rate, review, and share info on your favorite movies, TV shows, music, and topics. You are awarded stickers for certain check-ins, that are displayed virtually on your GetGlue homepage. Each month, you can request that your stickers be sent (20 per month, subject to availability) to you, free of charge. As I have said before, this may seem cheesey, but free is free, and I get nothing from other sites like Facebook or Twitter.

The app has been in beta for a little over a month, but is now quite polished, and the few bugs that the app had are now gone. If you haven't tried it yet, you should definitely give GetGlue a look. You can download GetGlue at BlackBerry App World, free of charge and available for most BlackBerry devices. More screencaps after the break.

The BBC posted this video preview of The One Ronnie show to their youtube account earlier this week. It's definitely a good little piece of British BlackBerry humor (note for the North Americans in the crowd, that "Orange" is a cellular carrier!). Check it out for a Wednesday morning laugh. I spotted this one on Isaac Kendall's facebook stream, so thanks Isaac!

I'm always on the lookout to try and find a BlackBerry when I watch TV. Last night I was excited to find a Bold 9700 at the end of In Plain Sight. Sure we could just post a screencap, say how cool it was since most shows use an old Curve 83xx or maybe a Bold 9000 at best, but this time we're throwing in a little fun. If you watch the video above, you can see there is a semi-fake call screen and then a shot of the homescreen. If you have a keen eye you'll notice quite a few inconsistencies between the two. We can assume the "call screen" is really just a Photoshop that was tweaked a bit, but its still not accurate. Watch the video and see what you can spot. Hit the jump to see if you found everything I did (and if I missed anything be sure to leave a comment and let us know).

Bold 9700

Some of you may remember the review I did of PrimeTime2Go last year. The service has been progressing since last May, and now comes pre-loaded on the T-Mobile Bold 9700. PrimeTime2Go offers over 60 prime time programs, and comes with a carrier billing option on the T-Mobile Bold 9700 for $9.99/month. Unfortunately, there are still very few BlackBerry models supported by the service, but more devices are being added as they can be supported.

As of my last review, PrimeTime2Go was still in its infancy, and was experiencing some growing pains. As of this review with the T-Mobile Bold 9700, it seems that they have worked out some of their intial bugs, and made the software more usuable.

I never know if ABC is going to feature LOST on Wednesday night. Is it a new episode, a repeat? Since I don’t buy the weekly TV guide and I am too lazy to turn on my computer to find out, I figured I would put my BlackBerry to work. TV Guide, the leading authority for tv listings has nicely put together a mobile version of their web site.

Simply go to http://wireless.tvguide.com. The navigation is clear and fast. Enter your ZIP code and then select your provider. TV Guide features all possible providers including Satellite and Cable. So the lineup will be exactly the same one as your TV. Select the TV time you’re looking for and you’ll get a full listing. If you are interested in the life of Sandra Bullock, it is tonight at 8pm on E! Enjoy the show…

CrackBerry.com on TV!

 

Yesterday was a big day for CrackBerry.com in the media! 

CTV A quick shout out and thanks to news reporter Jon Hendricks of CTV who stopped by our office to do a piece on CrackBerry.com. He was in the office for about an hour interviewing and getting clips of the Crack Team at work. The segment aired on the evening news and was awesome! 

ComputerWorld Much thanks also to Heather Haverstein of ComputerWorld. I spoke to her earlier this week about the Confess Your BlackBerry Addiction and Win Contest, and she announced it yesterday to the ComputerWorld community. Heather said their readers responded really well to the first piece they ran about CrackBerry.com.

Thanks Jon and Heather for the help in spreading the CrackBerry.com word!
