TweetGenius: Blackberry finally gets a decent Twitter app

There's been an absolute deluge of different Twitter apps over the past year or so, and the number is only getting bigger as Twitter's popularity grows. The iPhone might be the leader in mobile Twitter clients, boasting Twitterrific and Tweetie, but the poor, maligned BlackBerry has been lagging behind. The team at Boy Genius Report decided to do something about that, though, and now BlackBerry users can turn to TweetGenius.

TweetGenius is the first client for the BlackBerry to include advanced features like search and TwitPic integration. While it might not measure up to its iPhone cousins in terms of UI, it's leaps and bounds ahead of competitors like Twitterberry in terms of looks and ease of use. The pop-up bubble for entering a tweet is a nice touch. If you're a BlackBerry user who's been reluctant to use Twitter because the right client came along, give TweetGenius a spin. You might like it.
