Users of UberTwitter for BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM) will be pleased to know a new update has come down the pipe. Not only does it take us to version 0.970 from 0.963, but a changelog has been provided. Kind of nice when we know for certain the changes, features and enhancements made in any update! The changelog is as follows:

If you’re looking for an iPhone application to share photos across your social networks, you may want to give TweetPhoto a roll.

The site just got an overhaul – which prominently features photos of the Full House cast – and this new iPhone app makes it pretty simple to share pictures across Twitter, MySpace, Facebook, or Foursquare accounts. I downloaded the free app TweetPhoto Pro and it looks pretty good: it has a clean interface that makes it quick to scan your friends’ photo streams, as well as public or popular photos. Signing up is easy, and TechCrunch says we can expect versions for Android and BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM) soon enough.

Looking for a great theme that brings a Mac OSX flavor to your BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM)? If so, you’ll want to check out TiltBerry 2.0 from C_86 Themes. TiltBerry was recently updated to version 2.0 and packs a lot of punch for only .99. All icons on-screen are set at an angle, hence the name ‘TiltBerry’. But once your rollover or ‘activate’ an icon, it sits straight up at attention, ready for you to open ‘er up. All menus have been updated with a a slight opacity to them. There’s a 7 icon bottom and side dock, and a weather slot in the top right corner. There’s also a ‘hidden today’ screen, and, of course, the theme is wallpaper friendly.

I told you about this one just a little while ago… and as expected, Stinger Table Hockey has arrived in the App Store! Get out your iPhone and iPod Touch for some realistic ‘bubble hockey’ action!

I’d be remiss if I didn’t throw this one down for all of the iPhone buffs out there. My bud Rene over at TiPB recently returned from MacWorld, and the pic you see above is no doubt the result of free ‘conference schwag’ to the max. Yes, I just said ‘to the max’

Gotta love these iPhone coasters. Tip of the cap to Rene here… Does anyone know where I can pick up these bad boys? I’m thinking my office would be much more complete with a set of iPhone coasters…

Verizon (NYSE: VZ) is continuing with its DROID app recommendation practice and this week it’s all about music. The carrier is highlighting three apps:

• iheartradio – which gives users access to over 400 radio stations across the U.S. Users can bookmark their favorite stations, view lyrics, and access exclusive performances and intimate vignettes from today’s hottest music stars.
• TuneWiki – popular free social media player that shows subtitled lyrics. The application also comes with the Playback Widget, and Facebook and Twitter integration.

Attention BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM) Developers. In case you missed notice of this, RIM is holding a webinar, titled ‘Small Screens, Big Dreams: a Detail-Oriented Approach to User Interface Design‘. This isn’t a ‘must attend’, but is certainly a smart choice of any BlackBerry developer to sit down and check out. It’s going to be presented by Brian Zubert, a senior app development consultant… In the seminar you’ll learn how fonts, padding, spacing, layout, alignment and more can effect your UI design. Learn how to make the most of your UI for a highly effective BlackBerry App!

It turns out Microsoft isn’t the only mobile platform producer resetting its ecosystem this week. In a lower-key move that could actually affect millions more customers than Microsoft’s reboot of Windows Phones yesterday, Research In Motion today took over control of Mobile World Congress’ side-show, called “App Planet,” with a series of developer-focused seminars whose intention appears to be resituating developers on the new purpose of the BlackBerry platform.

First Gen ‘Stormies’ look here. There’s a new OS leak for you to download and install. We’re looking at OS 5.0.0.484 here, and yes, this is very unofficial. If you plan to install be sure to backup your device and take all necessary precautions before proceeding. If you’re on the fence or just plain don’t care, then leave it. You’re better off by not installing a new OS anyway

ContactFlow is one of those iPhone apps that found its way from a jailbreak app to the official Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) AppStore. The idea is simple – to allow users to browse their contacts like they are albums in the iPod app, cover flow style.

The application, as expected, doesn’t stop at simple browsing – you can also use it to call someone, send SMS or an email. An appropriate iPhone app will start depending on the function selected.
