IM+ for BlackBerry Now Supports MySpace Messenger
27 April 2007
All BlackBerry owners who love MySpace are going to love this. They can now use MySpace Messenger.
It's bad enough that you can't get MySpace to come up on your normal BlackBerry browser and have to use Opera Mini access the popular social-networking site. And even though RIM's new BlackBerry OS 4.2, which I recently installed on a BlackBerry 8700, allows you pull up MySpace up on the BlackBerry browser, not everyone has an 8700 or can download the new OS. It doesn't help that only AT&T customers can get MySpace messages sent to their BlackBerry either.
But now, all that has changed, thanks to Shape Services and the great IM program they offer, IM+, which supports MSN Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, AOL IM, ICQ, Google Talk, and Jabber all in one application. With today development, you can now add MySpace Messenger to the list.
Users can chat in MySpace Messenger and receive notifications about messages in your blog, profile, e-mail, and friends invitations. This makes MySpace mobile to any BlackBerry owner, regardless of service provider. Plus you can get all your IM accounts logged into one application.
