Coming Soon: LinkedIn for BlackBerry
This morning, at the BlackBerry Developer Conference in San Francisco, I have the great pleasure of announcing one of our most important mobile efforts for 2009: the launch of LinkedIn for BlackBerry. Needless to say, this launch has been hotly anticipated by the millions of LinkedIn members who make the BlackBerry their mobile business platform of choice.
LinkedIn for BlackBerry: Home
Imagine walking into any interview, any customer engagement or client meeting with the ability to look up the details on over 50 million professionals worldwide, in real-time. Soon this will be a reality, as this application will bring the powerful capabilities of LinkedIn to your BlackBerry.
LinkedIn for BlackBerry: Search
LinkedIn for BlackBerry: Profile
We’ve worked hard to develop an application that takes advantage of the unique capabilities of the BlackBerry platform. LinkedIn for BlackBerry will also include deep integration with the native Messages, Contacts & Calendar applications on the BlackBerry platform. For example, here is an early screenshot of the native BlackBerry Messages application, with LinkedIn invitations and one-to-one messages integrated into the inbox:
LinkedIn for BlackBerry: Messages
LinkedIn for BlackBerry will join our existing suite of mobile products by the end of this year, marking the next step in our continuing effort to bring LinkedIn to wherever you work. This is just the beginning – expect continued enhancements and expansions of the LinkedIn mobile platform in 2010.
See you at the BlackBerry Developer Conference 2009. To stay updated on BlackBerry developments, join the LinkedIn for BlackBerry Group.
And, if you’re one of our users who can’t wait to find out when the application will be ready for install, just email blackberryapp@linkedin.com to receive a notification.

I think this is awesome news that could truly drive linked in to other level of acceptance. Making usage simpler while on the on the road is going to bring wider acceptance of a wonderful business social network. I still find plenty of Fortune 500 peers that interrupt a social network as Facebook. I do believe Linked In needs to increase their brand through the understanding that this is a serious business / professional relationship tool for growth in many genres and separate themselves from Facebook and Twitter.

Freakin awesome work guys!
Terry November 9th, 2009

I am very excited for this app. It sounds interesting; I’d like to know exactly how you’ve made it. My Blackberry is one of the few things in my possession that I haven’t ripped up to see how it works.
While BB devices will it be able to run on? I have an older Bold, but this might cause me to buy a newer one. Looking forward to it!

I think it’s a very important step for LinkedIn who’s a Leading Business Social Network, to marry BlackBerry, the Leading mobile platform for Business Workers. The app for iPhone issues earlier is just a joke, the business people who do Networking online are most (at least in Europe) on Blackberry.
And we expect more from LinkedIn on mobile!
