    I know at lot of us in here are regularly complaining about BlackBerry's ability to connect to the public. I thought I'd see whether enough people in here would be willing to give them a hand and do a bit of advertising ourselves using the social media resources we have available to us.

    It would involve a bit of communication and planning, but it's something I'd be willing to get involved with if enough people were also interested.

    Let me know!

    Okay, so I'm on holiday, but I thought I'd use the image that some WhatsCrap fans were using to bash BBM and have a bit of fun. I'll do a BBM one in a few minutes and post it here. Feel free to repost and share elsewhere!

    Here is a BBM one. If you like it, set it as your WhatsApp profile pic, and share it on social media. Let's get going with some campaigning of our own

    Yes, that was a stupid post and waste of people's time. Many of us are investors as well as BlackBerry fans, so for us it isn't a waste of time.

    BlackBerry 10 has been held back by a tidal wave of irrational negativity in the media and general culture, particularly in the US. Us beginning to spread our own pro-Blackberry propaganda is not only fun but effective if we do it with enough energy. Folks can come in and troll themselves to sleep if they want, but I'll keep the BlackBerry ads coming for those who want to spread them around.

    Well, that just goes to show that we are capable of making ripples if not waves if we work together.
