    In time, that will come. I'm sure that companies sitting on sidelines will take notice of this report. It's only 4 months old.

    Need to make channel content available for viewing through a web browser for the general public that doesn't have BBM. That way a post can be linked and shared through any other medium, potentially going viral and causing those "viewers" to explore BBM Channels and hopefully sign up.

    Yes. And a way to share posts to Twitter and other social apps.

    Actually, I think it is less the channel content but the comment content. PIN spamming/single comment profile and chat profile is the reason why I don't engage with channels I follow. And engaging means more growth of BBM.

    Sharing to Twitter would be nice.

    I think comment quality has a lot to do with the demographic mix of current BBM users... unfortunately.

    It's funny, just the other day I was wondering how many active users whatsapp has, I know they have like 500 million users, but I don't think all those users are active. I deleted my whatsapp long ago and I'm still on people's favorite list.

    Exactly! I have deleted mine too and so has my wife. In my case I went and removed my account before I deleted the app so I am not one of their 500 million but my wife is.

    So the apple to apple comparison is 113 million to 500 million.

    I read this at BRG which a nice positive story from them. They said Bbm has 115 million registered users and 85 million active users which is 20% more than tango which got an evaluation at over 1 billion. I think it is a good start for Bbm.
