TruTower
Blackberry Ltd’s popular Blackberry Messenger (BBM) instant messenger application will available to Android and iPhone users this coming weekend.
The smartphone company, which has been struggling in recent years, announced back in May that the chat app would be coming to other devices, according to Reuters.
The app initially gained popularity because it allowed Blackberry users to dodge high texting charges on their phone bills, but it now has a lot of competition from companies such as Facebook.
Reuters reports that Android users can download the app Saturday, while iPhone users can do so Sunday. I may so do myself.

Three Staten Island Men Impersonate Police Officers To Skip Grand Theft Auto V Line
The madness continues.
Earlier in the week, we told you about an assault that took place in the London area involving the theft of the new Grand Theft Auto V video game (no pun intended). We now have another crime to tell you about that took place on the other side of the pond in Staten Island, New York.
Three young men really wanted to get their hands on GTAV and weren’t patient enough to wait in a long line like everyone else was, so they impersonated police officers in order to cut it.
Frank Santanastosa, 19, Kirolos Abdel Sayed, 19, and Matthew Kirshen, 20, drove to the Staten Island Mall in a vehicle disguised as an unmarked police car. Once they made it to the line, Abdel Sayed and Kirshen flashed fake badges and Santanastoso revealed a police shield tattoo… all in an effort to dupe security into thinking they were police on duty. The guys were actually just full of duty.
They managed to cut the entire line, buy their own copies of the game, hop back into their car and split. Sources told the New York Daily News that the three individuals cut about 500 people.
We know how messed up the guys’ actions were, but here is where they got sloppy. Shortly after leaving the mall, they made an illegal U-turn, followed by multiple failures to stop at stop signs- great ways to get the attention of real police.
Guess what happened next… they got pulled over. Kirshen, the idiot who was driving, told the officer he was “with NYPD” and borrowed a friend’s badge. Smooth move… he and the other two men were arrested on the spot and charged with impersonating a police officer.
They were released and have to go back to court sometime soon.
The moral of this story is: don’t impersonate police officers, drive safely and don’t break the law in order to get a video game.

Apple Releases iTunes Radio To Compete With Pandora
Pandora now has some serious competition because Apple has just released the highly anticipated iTunes Radio service.
Users can enjoy both featured stations, which present artists and songs that it thinks users will like, and custom stations, which users can create completely on their own based off of a certain artist, genre or song. You can skip up to six songs per hour per station.
A history feature allows you to browse through every single song that has been played on your account so you can find them for purchase. A ratings system lets you customize a playlist by clicking “play more like this” or “never play this song.”
Siri, Apple’s voice recognition assistant, allows you to play, pause or skip songs, request specific radio stations or genres, and rate songs to customize the stations… all with your voice, according to Forbes. You can even ask “Who sings this song?” to find out the artist is.
Pandora better step its game up because Apple is coming to the playing field in great shape.
