ÜberTwitter Currently The Most Popular BlackBerry Twitter App

There are now a few good BlackBerry Twitter applications available for many devices, but the every day user wouldn’t really know which is more popular according to the percentage of users.

That’s why there are sites like TwitStat, which monitors Twitter client usage for all accounts follow by @twitstat.

I’ve gone ahead and pulled the top BlackBerry apps listed on the TwitStat page. Here they are by rank with links to their pages:

• 9 - ÜberTwitter
• 12 - TwitterBerry
• 25 - SocialScope
• 80 - Yatca
• 104 - vlingo
• 110 - twibble

These stats would be accurate if it wasn’t for the fact that SocialScope is in closed beta. Since ÜberTwitter is in open beta, more people are able to download and use it. Also, like Adam from Mashable said, ÜberTwitter has gotten some celebrity exposure to help increase its user base.

So now you have to wonder…if SocialScope was open invite instead of closed invite, would it be the top BlackBerry Twitter app? I’ve been using the new SocialScope for a while now and I have to say, it is definitely the top app for me. Since I’ve played with all the apps listed above, I can’t be too biased right?

Thoughts? Which is your favorite BlackBerry Twitter app, and why?

Serious Twitter Outage & Facebook Also Failing

* UPDATE As of 1PM EST, Twitter is still undergoing a DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack. Facebook still having issues too. *

If you’ve been wondering why your BlackBerry Twitter or Facebook applications aren’t working well today, it’s because a virtual apocalypse is in currently progress! Just kidding, but they are experiencing some problems.

Twitter as of right now is fully down with this update from their status blog:

We are determining the cause and will provide an update shortly.

Facebook is also having some intermittent issues but seems to be working for the most part. Until these problems are sorted out TechCrunch has a great list of alternative things to do.

Let me know if these problems are affecting you in the comments!

3G Theme Now Available Free for BlackBerry Storm

You may remember the 3G theme we checked out a few weeks back. Sadly it was only available for the Bold, but after much begging, redzapper finally found the time to do it up for the Storm. 3G is one of the best free themes I have come across in a while, and I'm sure Storm users will be glad to finally get their hands on it. The theme features a hidden today screen, center banner slot for weather, QuickLaunch support and homescreen hotspots. 3G is available OTA for the Storm at this link.
