Official WordPress BlackBerry App Open for Beta

As expected, WordPress has just announced the availability of their new blog editing app for BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM), much to my personal glee. Page creation, comment moderation and, of course, blog posting are all supported, as well as picture uploading right from the device’s camera. While I would be loathe to share pictures from the Bold’s camera anywhere save Twitpic, I do use a microSD memory card with adapter in my current point-and-shoot, so a little switcheroo would make uploading quality pics to the blog while on the go simple enough. ScreamingToaster is currently working on a beta WordPress editor, but I have a feeling the guys working on the official one will probably be able to throw a bit more weight behind the app. Bold, Curve 8900, Storm and 8700 are all supported in the WordPress for BlackBerry beta – you can get started by hitting up blackberry.wordpress.org/install on your mobile browser.


Hi
Excellent article.
However, I disagree with you about WordPress being able to throw more at it that ScreamingToaster
. Btw, with Wicked, you can upload pictures from your media card, and also directly snap a pic from your camera with 1 click… and resize the pics, and control HTML creation options… along with geotagging your post
. And much more!
If you have any doubts, check out this video – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfMLjwaG-iM&feature=player_embedded
Please sign up for our beta here – http://screamingtoaster.com/?page_id=429.
The product should be released within 2 weeks.
Thanks again
