    Has anyone else spotted the absolute bore of an image & text that they use on Blackberry adverts on Twitter? Well, here's an example:

    Do you think we should have some graphics play time and do some for them? Then we can tweet them to the BlackBerry accounts so they get noticed.

    Just a thought... people on here go on about how abysmal BlackBerry marketing is, maybe the community can do it better.

    I like the irony behind "I will complete one task before starting another" since BB10 multitasks so well.

    They really are awful. I don't understand why they keep letting these idiots run BB's marketing. EVERYONE knows its terrible and yet they make zero effort to fix it.

    I agree, it's like they WANT to fail.

    Still loving my Z10 but mad as hell.

    I've tried they are beyond saving unless they gut and replace the marketing staff and most importantly the CMO. Believe me I've tried pointing it out to them. Their Facebook page is ever worse than their Twitter feed.

    I found these were not very I informative when I saw them ...



    Awkward moment much? Not sure what this is trying to show.



    Do people know what this even is?? I mean I do, but I can see people being confused. And what exactly is the image showing?



    Ok a keyboard .... yay? I know what's cool about the bb keyboard, but most people likely don't.

    Would be really interesting to see people's ideas.

    I haven't seen a single Z30 ad which is a shame since it seems like a really great phone.

    The whole sh*ttiness of that ad takes the focus completely away from the q10.
    I was more invested in how depressing it looked than how magnificent the q10 is. At least place the phone on an unused napkin.

    Speaking of the keyboard, my coworker saw my Z10 and asked which one it was. I told him it's a BlackBerry phone. He proceeded to borrow and then said it's probably not a one-handed phone - he's using an iPhone. I calmly told him my Z10 is a very much one-handed phone as I composed an email and swiped the words up the screen and then sent. He was truly impressed. So people do notice the Z10 for its look and will be impressed with BB10 with proper demo.

    I'm continually in awe of how wretched BlackBerry's marketing department is. I would be laughing hysterically except for my deep sadness that they have completely ruined BlackBerry's chances for success. Only true idiots could have botched a phone as great as the Z10. Even more alarming are the idiots in management who have let this continue without firing them first and starting over. I bet none of the 4,500 people recently laid off are in the marketing department.

    I wish there were some way we could have been heard. It's so frustrating that nothing changes. At least HTC has publicly acknowledged their weakness and their intent to change.
