Flickr has released a new application to upload photos directly from your BlackBerry to your Flickr account. If you have a BlackBerry with a camera, you can take photos and upload them directly to Flickr. If you don’t have a camera on your BlackBerry, you still can upload any photo saved on your device.
It is a free application and works as promised! Check it out.

At first, this didn’t seem like the most natural fit (BlackBerry users tend to be businesspeople, not Facebook’s primary audience), but the application is pretty awesome for all BlackBerry-wielding Facebook users out there.
Facebook for BlackBerry has really tight integration with the BlackBerry operating system, so many of the features “fit right in” with the rest of the device. For example, when you get a new notification sent to your BlackBerry (which is customizable) you get a notification icon on the top of the BlackBerry home screen, just like the current new voicemail or new message icons. It shows a little “F” when you have a new message. Great stuff.
You can even upload photos from the BlackBerry device’s memory straight to Facebook.

This is probably the best mobile application suite from one of the best companies around — Google. If you are like the rest of the Google-using world, you probably want access to your GMail, Google Docs, Google Calendar, etc. Now you can have it.
Perhaps the best part is the Google Sync, which automatically syncs your BlackBerry device with Google Calendar. All of this is done with a new Google Mobile Updater, which automatically checks for and downloads updates and new applications. Check out mobile.google.com.
We will be taking a look at each Google product for BlackBerry individually in upcoming posts.
