NOT AFFILIATED WITH SAGE

BlackBerry has just released an update to their BlackBerry Messenger software that is included on every BlackBerry device. This program allows for instant messaging between BlackBerry users. One of the new features which they added is an ability to create groups to facilitate group discussions and sharing of common items like pictures, tasks, and calendars.

For our purposes the ability to group chat may be handy for technical questions and answers.

Here's how to join.

First, you need to be running BlackBerry Messenger 5.0.

This is a free download that you can obtain by visiting the following link on your BlackBerry browser:

http://www.blackberry.com/messenger

Second, once you have BlackBerry Messenger 5.0 setup you can join by opening the BlackBerry Messenger menu and selecting "Scan a Group Barcode"

Open to anyone with an interest in Sage discussion - chat, technical, updates
