For business networking, there is no better site than Linked in.

Linked in has built in measures to cut back on spam, track reputation via recommendations, and make it so only true contacts can friend other contacts.

In other words it’s not a follow buffet like twitter.

Being tailored and targetted at businesses and enterprises it’s amazing that it’s taken them so long to launch a Blackberry app. However today they’ve finally launched their native blackberry application.

It’s pretty sweet too, LinkedIn users can integrate their LinkedIn connections with their devices’ address book, and view the profile of any contact directly on the device. LinkedIn invitations and messages will now show up in the BlackBerry’s inbox. BlackBerry LinkedIn users can also view the LinkedIn profile of any sender of email they receive, as well as the profile of attendees at meetings on your calendar.

It’s a guarantee that the LinkedIn app will be extremely popular, and might even become the top application, considering the amount of professionals using BlackBerry devices.

LinkedIn is also working on a lot of other projects and will have a lot more features to come including integration with Twitter, Microsoft Outlook, and it’s opening of an API to developers will breed a huge influx of applications I’m sure.
