Twitter for BlackBerry app has been updated to version 1.1 that now comes with Geotagging Tweets, Push @Mentions, Chat-Style Messages, #Topic Autocomplete and more. Geotagging functionality on Twitter for BlackBerry smartphones is designed to allow you to add your geographical location to Tweets. Geotags provide valuable context to your Tweets, as it allows others to see what location you’ve tweeted from, You can enable this feature in the Options menu, as it is turned off by default. Now when you’re mentioned on Twitter, you’ll immediately receive a notification on your BlackBerry smartphone through the use of BlackBerry Push technology. With Push @Mentions, you can control whether you want to be notified when anyone mentions you, or just when your followers mention you. Direct Messages has been renamed to Messages to align with the online Twitter experience and redesigned the interface to follow a chat-style layout. The #Topic Autocomplete feature will pop up a list of keywords based on previous hashtagged words(e.g. BlackBerry) in Tweets, Retweets, or any hashtagged words you’ve selected or searched for in Popular Topics, as well as in applications like Facebook® for BlackBerry smartphones.
You can download the Twitter for BlackBerry 1.1 beta from BlackBerry Beta Zone.
