Today Zumobi announced a new widget offering for BlackBerry smartphones. The platform is ad supported, but there are plenty of widgets available, which are called "tiles" in Zumobi parlance. Some of the first batch of tiles ready for BlackBerry users include access to information from the Olympics and Major League Baseball, as well as social networking sites Facebook and Twitter. Content is cached on the BlackBerry so it can be retrieved quicker. The platform is free to use, and is already available to Windows Mobile devices.
