LinkedIn has released a free application for the RIM BlackBerry. Developed in collaboration with RIM, it integrates with a number of BlackBerry functions such as email, the calendar, and contacts. For example, you could use it to look up the background of people with whom you have an upcoming meeting. According to Adam Nash, LinkedIn’s vice-president of search and platform products:
“You’ll have the power of LinkedIn in your pocket. You’ll be able to use your professional network, build it, access it, anywhere you go.”
LinkedIn for BlackBerry supports the BlackBerry Tour, Bold, and Curve (requiring BlackBerry OS 4.3.0 or higher). One notable omission is the BlackBerry Storm.
