BlackBerry has released its BBM social platform in beta today. This gives devs the power to build BBM features into their BlackBerry apps, and means that App World apps will have more BBM features built right into their UI’s. That means you could, for example, have a BBM conversation whilst playing a multiplayer game on your BlackBerry.
The BBM social platform beta also gives devs the tools to build in contact list integration, user profiles, and content transfers. It’s part of BlackBerry’s apparent plans to push BBM under the noses of more users, and comes after rumours that BBM will be available on Android and iOS in the future.
