I just downloaded and installed the WordPress app for the Blackberry, so I thought that it would be fitting to write a post using it.

So far, so good, though there was a hiccup or two. The first issue was downloading the app. I’ve got an older Blackberry, with a scroll wheel, and the app store doesn’t work with it. Fortunately the WordPress folks have provided an “Over-The-Air” install link. The only other issue was getting the app to talk to WordPress on this web site (required modifying some path information and enabling a setting). That’s it; it works.

Features I’ve used for this post include adding a new category, and the auto-recognition of a Url. Both worked well. If you’ve got a Blackberry and a WordPress blog, you should definitely download the app–it’s free!
