RIM may return to wetting the developers? Technical director of the BlackBerry platform company Web Laurent Hasson gave a speech at the London Summit web this morning, describing why web apps can be the key to return to BlackBerry.

"It's a shame because many people feel that way," he said, citing the example of a BlackBerry developer that the development was "a walk in the park . Central Park, around midnight, in the 80's, only ... "

"Basically, a lot has changed," he said Hasson, noting that last year, RIM launched its first WebKit browser, and full BlackBerry WebWorks web-app platform through their tablets and smartphones, and Web development tools for people to use.

"Say No to NIBS," said Hasson - NIBS be "native is better syndrome", the motto of RIM is apparently used to deter developers to focus exclusively on native applications (for devices Other companies, most likely).

"native will always be a couple more stages [technical], but the site is fully competitive for most applications ... An application does not mean that HTML5 does not have access to an App Store and this does not mean you do not have access to native APIs. "

Hasson also spoke about the BlackBerry Messaging (BBM), the service as something that developers should integrate into their applications as needed.

"With the application BBM compatible, 20% of applications in the App Store that are downloaded are BBM-enabled," said Hasson. "Using BBM to make your application more sticky that really works . " And RIM has worked to ensure that developers can create Web applications that use BBM as well.
Hasson said that 90% of users Playbook update to the latest version of the operating system in a month of its release -. Surprising given the fact that it includes features such as email, contacts and calendar
