Last week, I was able to speak at the inaugural meetup of the New England Developer Group in Boston, MA. It was a great event where I provided an in-depth look at the concept of Super Apps and how developers can take advantage of the capabilities of the BlackBerry® platform.
After the presentation, I opened the floor to any question from the audience, and we had a lively discussion around a variety of topics. We covered everything from BlackBerry App World™ (discussion of new billing models such as carrier and credit card billing in the future) to enhancements to our tooling (fast simulator support removing the need to reset received a round of applause). I was excited by both the types of the questions and the excitement in the community around the work we are doing to enhance the platform. I am looking forward to hearing about the success of the next meetup!
