Easy way to add BBM contacts from Facebook

Finally it's here! BBM for iPhone and Android! After all the waiting and anticipation now that you've got BBM it's no fun unless all your friends are on your contact list. With 10 million downloads in the first 24 hours and another 5 million in the queue I'd say that BBM is in high demand, but, after downloading BBM you are welcomed by an empty contact list.   Here's an easy way to add BBM contacts through Facebook.

1. Update your Facebook status make sure you include this link www.pin.bbm.com/1234ABcd (but with your BBM PIN after the backslash) 
You can also send the same link as a post on a friends wall or in a direct message or comment.

2. When your Facebook friends click the link while on their mobile device, if they have already downloaded BBM the App will instantly open up to the 'Invite By Pin' screen in BBM with your PIN automatically populated. They click SEND and an Invite will automatically be sent to you. Once you accept their invitation, they will instantly be added to your Contact List.



If your Facebook friend has not already downloaded BBM the link will direct them to the download flow. And it's that easy! We are once again reunited with BBM! Happy BBM'ing relapsing CrackBerry addicts!

Will the World Relapse into CrackBerry Addiction Once Again?

All I'm hearing about is bad press for BlackBerry (so what else is new?) 

But what I'm really interested in is the fact that 1.1 million people actually downloaded BBM in the AppStore and another million (just guessing) impatient people downloaded the leaked version for Android. Where are the reviews for the App? Where are the first impressions? Relapsed CrackBerry addicts where you at? 

Were you able to download the App? If you actually did download it, it's not that much fun to use unless all your friends are on it too. But don't fret, soon you won't be alone. Hopefully BlackBerry can recover from the worst rollout ever and gain back people's trust. 

Let's go BlackBerry! I'm sending you positive vibes amid the looming job cuts and nose diving stock prices, give the people what they want! Give them BBMForAll! (except Windows and Nokia)

How to Set your BBM Animated Avatar on iPhone

bbm-animated.com The Best Source For BBM Animated Avatars for iPhone, Android and BB10

So you downloaded the BBM App for iPhone...but you can't get your BBM avatar to animate like your BlackBerry and Android friends? 

Currently, iOS does not support setting animated GIFs from the iPhone image gallery or 'Camera Roll'. So if you are saving and setting your avatar this way - you can still use the avatars, however there will be no animation. Booooo!

But there is a way!!!!

Until BlackBerry fixes this issue you can only set the animated avatar by stealing your friends avatars from your contact list. Not the nicest solution but hey it works...

Here's How:

1. Start a chat with the friend who has a cool avatar that you want





2. Tap the header displaying your friend's name and animated avatar in the chat window 



3. In the User Profile tap on the animated avatar



4. In the BBM Display Picture preview select the arrow icon in the top right corner

5. Select the option to 'Set as BBM Display Picture' and you're done!
