Pinger… really cool
Joe from Pinger.com wrote back March (wow I’m way behind, sorry!) about some new functionality that they’re offering over via Pinger.com that gives you the ability to send voice mails to anyone in your Pinger.com address book by calling pinger (858-274-6437), saying the name of your contact and then leaving a voice mail. The really cool part come next though: you can create ‘groups’ on pinger.com and then leave a voice mail that gets distributed to all the members of the group by saying the name of the group and then leaving your voice mail. One of the less noticed parts of this that I like is that your contacts don’t live on the phone: one of the biggest pains is moving from one phone or carrier to another only to have to re-enter all your contacts and all your phone numbers.

MySpace for your BlackBerry?
A couple weeks ago I got an email from Marc at MobilePlay about a new service they’re offering called eXpress It!, which is billed as a Social Networking Service for mobile phone users. The service allows you to create a web page via your web browser that you then send to your phone (which they can do for you) and then you can forward that page to any of the people in your address book either by sending an email (probably the preferred method if you already have a BlackBerry) or by MMS.

BerryDialer: Use multiple calling cards on your BlackBerry
With the cost of international phone calls through Skype and other VOIP providers so low, I’m not sure why someone would ever choose to use a calling card, but I guess if you’re on the go and don’t have a laptop, then a calling card makes sense. If you’re one of those people, you absolutely must check out the BerryDialer program, available from mobilesoftmarket.com , which gives you the ability to enter one or more calling card numbers into your BlackBerry and then not have to enter them again.

Tube 2 for BlackBerry
There’s a number of subway / metro applications available for your BlackBerry, the one Ryan sent me today looks like one of the nicer ones. The screenshots of the maps look really nice, crystal clear almost and the application can overlay your route on map
