Today we\u2019ve got tips for the Social Feeds app. How do you get your news? We\u2019ve looked at people who <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.blackberry.com\/2012\/10\/blackberry-news-reading\/\" >get their news via their BlackBerry devices<\/a>, but what about social networks? What\u2019s the first thing you do when a huge news story breaks? For me, I check the RSS Feeds tab on my Social Feeds app and then tab over to see what the reaction is on Twitter and Facebook.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The Social Feeds App is like a Puppy<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Available on BlackBerry  6 OS devices and later, the Social Feeds app does a great job of giving you a view of what\u2019s happening in the world via RSS, social networks, and podcasts. Over on the Inside BlackBerry  Help Blog, Ty has a solid blog post on <a href=\"http:\/\/helpblog.blackberry.com\/2011\/09\/social-feeds-2-0-for-blackberry-7\/\" >how to set up Social Feeds<\/a>, but I want to focus on how you can train it for maximum awesomeness \u2014 just like a puppy.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Stay:<\/strong> The Flagged Items feature lets you save an update or feed for viewing later. Facebook feed tells you it\u2019s your anniversary? Flag it so you can remember to pick up a gift, or else prepare to download the \u201cI\u2019m sorry\u201d app.\n<li><strong>Fetch:<\/strong> Filter results based on very specific keywords (\u201cWalnut double-chocolate brownies\u201d instead of \u201cbrownies\u201d) for smarter results. Since you can search across all feeds, it saves a ton of time over searching Facebook or Twitter individually.\n<li><strong>Roll Over:<\/strong> Social Feeds also allows you to login to <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/\" >bit.ly<\/a> to shorten links on the fly. Business users that rely on bit.ly for analytics will find this feature especially helpful.\n<li><strong>Lay Down:<\/strong> Click the \u201cDo not show here\u201d button on any feed you\u2019re not using to make it faster to swipe across the social landscape. This is your Social Feeds puppy; take out the stuff you\u2019re not using.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I\u2019m hoping that these quick training tips will help speed up your use of Social Feeds, or at least provide you with the inspiration to share your Social Feeds power tips in the comments below. Mmm, walnut double-chocolate brownies.<\/p>\n<p>  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gocomments\/rimblogs.wordpress.com\/16060\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/comments\/rimblogs.wordpress.com\/16060\/\" \/><\/a> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/stats.wordpress.com\/b.gif?host=blogs.blackberry.com&#038;blog=17235670&#038;%23038;post=16060&#038;%23038;subd=rimblogs&#038;%23038;ref=&#038;%23038;feed=1\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/InsideBlackberry-TheOfficialBlackBerryBlog\/~4\/g7YUfdsgzso\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Even though BlackBerry 10 has launched, there are a lot of you out there looking for BlackBerry 7 OS tips.
