A new site, proudly proclaiming itself the #1 site for Blackberry users and abusers, has gone live: Crackberry.com. It’s a hilarious play on the moniker that lots of people have given the addictive little personal connectivity devices; and I’ll be perfectly honest, I didn’t think I would ever turn into the kind of person who’s constantly looking at his Blackberry or emailing from parking lots until I actually had one of my own and found myself in a job where so much work was conducted over email.

Crackberry.com is part satire and part actual content; it bills itself as a “rehab” site for people addicted to their Blackberry devices, but at the same time it’s a site that allows people who always keep their Blackberry at their hip to enjoy their device and have fun, offering games, downloads, ringtones, and more for Blackberry users, as well as forums and a community so Blackberry lovers can interact. There’s even a store where users can buy extra batteries, peripherals, and more. There’s even a part of the site dedicated to cures and treatments of the infamous “Blackberry thumb.” It’s hilarious, and in the wake of Blackberry beefing up its lineup with the Blackberry Pearl and the shiny new Blackberry 8800, I can see only more converts to the platform, including myself!
