BBM Versus Whatsapp by Nobody: 1:50pm On Dec 12, 2012
As discussed with a friend via sms today.

Max**** Od****

1) There's something called Whatsapp, which is a direct replacement for BBM and is crossed platform. Works with Nokia Symbian, Windows mobile, Apple, Android and BB. Popular as it is no be everybody dey eat PawPaw.

2) I have Facebook chat, Twitter and Gtalk. In addition to Whatsapp. That covers all the people I'd want to keep in touch with.

3) BBM is juvenile because it greatly
aids promiscuity. It's popular in Naija cos its cheap and easily keeps people online. And in our dumb country where we're too shallow to enlighten ourself (most of our output can't compete on international stages) BBM is a quick fix. Believe you me many people only know the road to the internet courtesy BB; i have too many examples to back up this claim. The "BlackBerry Babe" phenomenon comes to mind.

4) I still want my Samsung Galaxy S Duos S7562 for Xmas. Remember you promised to contribute :-)

I wonder when this comparism with BBM will ever end. The more I plan to do away with my BB, the more topics like this keep coming up making me to re-assess my decision. There must be something about BB that non-BB users are not willing to disclose.

Whats app is more consumer friendly cos whats app is not a phone chauvinist that selects phones unlike bbm which is strictly for bb users only

The above said,
BBM is still fun though I prefer whatsapp.
But again,
To all the BB haters,
Imagine browsing for 30 days straight without having to check if your mega byte has finished or not.
Now that's Greatness !!!
This factor alone makes BB to tower all other phones that I ve heard being mentioned in other BB
Bashing threads on NL.
Its like drinking your favourite beer along with some sweet dry meat with neither the meat nor the beer ever finishing.
Now how about dat ?

Re: BBM Versus Whatsapp by Megabyts(m): 2:29pm On Dec 13, 2012
Whattsapp is a real time online application that uses uor data either u are using it or not,it uses data as long as u have credit and uor fone is on,hence,some see it as expensive and so prefer bbm
