BBM Channels is the newest thing to hit BBM on BlackBerry devices. Currently in Beta Zone for BBOS+ devices and BB10 devices. For those of you who may have missed the announcement during BlackBerry Live, BBM Channels let you connect with your fans, customers or closest friends in real-time, right to their BlackBerrys. (of course in time we will more than like;y see this as a feature on all cross platform BBM devices) It is a great way to engage your followers with updates and picture post.

BBM Channels have been out for just a few days and it already seems to be widely accepted by the BlackBerry community. I’ve received many invites for many different channels, and you can see how the buzz is catching on. Want to know more of what you can do? Here are some things you may need to know.
