How To Create & Embed BBM Channel Badge On Your Website

Just like the facebook like box, you can attach a BBM channel badge to your website which would display the channel PIN and barcode.


This awesome utility was developed by Alex Kinsella while he was still with BlackBerry. The badge or widget is in the form of a html code which you can easily embed on a webpage. For wordpress, you can put this code into a custom html widget for your sidebar or footer.
