InstaVenue for BlackBerry 10 has to be one of the greatest native applications
InstaVenue for BlackBerry 10 has to be one of the greatest native applications I've seen in a long time.
The one of the left is to change your location and over on the right is skins.
These include switching cameras, flash options, select a picture from your BlackBerry, settings and in the middle is the camera tab.
Sharing will open up a list of all the accounts in your BlackBerry Hub so you have a wide range of options.
This one gets the big thumbs up from me and will be staying on my BlackBerry forever!

The smash hit Bad Piggies from Rovio (Angry Birds) has just made its way into BlackBerry World for BlackBerry 10 devices.It's been a long time coming but as I'm a big fan of the game on other platforms, you won't get any complaints from me.
If you've never played it before, Bad Piggies lets you build a flying machine out of all kinds of doo-dads in attempts to knock off the - you guessed it - bad piggies.
It takes a bit of work at first but once you get the hang of it you'll build all kinds of crazy machines.

Orbit for BlackBerry 10 updated to v1.1
Back in August, we saw the release of an app called Orbit - the 3D weather app and world clock.
It is quite a joy to use Orbit, it is visually stunning and you can have oodles of fun exploring what the weather is like in different parts of the world.
I must admit it's not my go to weather app but every now and then I'll open up Orbit for the awesome effect of checking out the weather.
Orbit has now been updated to v1.1 and with it comes a lot of new features: If you haven't checked out Orbit, it is available to download from BlackBerry World for all BlackBerry 10 devices.
