My buddies at Xtreme Labs teamed up with MTV and Crackberry in putting together a Relief App for the BlackBerry device. You can read the press release here as well as heading over to the Crackberry store here to get it.
Also from the TechVibes Interview:
"We spoke with Xtreme Labs Vice-President, Farhan Thawar. He explained that the aim of the application is three-fold:
- Raise awareness and provide information to users through the various social networking tools (Twitter, Flickr, Google News)
- Use the reach of the mobile platform to raise funds for the organizations doing work to help support and rebuild after the events in Haiti. The application provides a one stop donation platform to all the SMS shortcodes in North America to the various relief organizations
- Promote the MTV fund raising effort (MTV telethon airing Saturday)"
Nice.
