ÜberTwitter has launched beta 5 of their BlackBerry twitter app, now including TweetPhoto support. ÜT already has a great proprietary photo service that geotags pictures using Google Maps, but TweetPhoto is a bit more sociable, letting you track views, vote pictures up or down, publish simultaneously to Facebook and see who else has viewed the picture recently. Although there has been a slew of rival BlackBerry twitter apps over the last little while, ÜberTwitter remains a popular choice (despite the ads) for its simple layout and tons of options. You can hop on the open beta here from your BlackBerry’s browser, or purchace an ad-free, year-long license for $4.99.
