What do Blogsphere, MetaWebBlog and your BlackBerry have in common?

Hello,

At Lotusphere 2007 Bill Buchan said "Do you think you could write a BlackBerry app that would post new entries in a Blogsphere database?"  I think I said "probably" and then merrily ignored it for a year.  Well, Bill reminded me recently. So I have been working on "BBMetaBlog" which uses the MetaWebLog Api support in Blogsphere.

It's currently hovering between Alpha and Beta but more B than A (all of the functions actually work the ui needs fixing). There are some limitations and if they persist I'll disclose them nearer the time.

I'm hoping to have it ready for Lotusphere 2008 and maybe use it to illustrate some ideas from our BP211 presentation.  I expect to release the source through openCOD.org.

Just in case your reading this from an aggregator this post contains a few png screenshots and a little (2mb) wmv movie...

That leaves one more application to tell you about (assuming all goes well).  But for now Christmas begins

Merry Christmas to you && and your families!
