Buzzd let me know that their free application is now available for the BlackBerry Storm and for Canadian BlackBerry users!

buzzd delivers editorially driven event and venue information, along with up-to-the-minute reviews and ratings from other members of the buzzd community. Users can browse and search continuously updated event feeds, which include pricing, location, and event details as well as the firsthand ratings and reviews posted from the event by other members in real-time.

Event and venue information is courtesy of Citysearch, Flavorpill, Time Out, MyOpenBar, last.fm, Upcoming.org and many other local content providers. User-generated feedback for “real-time” activity about venues and events is also layered at the top of event listings throughout the platform.

Today buzzd unveiled its free BlackBerry application in the BlackBerry App World.

Buzzd gives BlackBerry users location-based guides making it easy to find a place to eat or grab some drinks, search for local events and more!

buzzd is the premier location-sensitive city guide and social network for your mobile phone. buzzd answers “what’s going on around me right now?™” by delivering up-to-the-minute info on bars, restaurants, concerts and events in a specific set location. buzzd features listings from Flavorpill, Time Out, Citysearch, ZAGAT, Upcoming as well as real-time posts (“buzzes”) from members of the buzzd community. Create a profile, add/invite friends and – if you post a “buzz” – it is sent as a text-message to your nearby friends in the network.

Buzzd also allows you to add events to your BlackBerry Calendar, send updates from buzzd to Twitter and it is fully integrated with your maps application for getting directions and locating a venue. You can also take pictures and post them for other buzzd members to see.

Up till now buzzd was available only through their mobile website. Buzzd does not require GPS because it uses Cell IDs to determine your location, the first application in the BlackBerry App World to do so.

Check out buzzd in the BlackBerry App World and let me know what you think!
