When we first saw the possibilities that augmented reality brought with the new BlackBerry 7 devices we were all a little intrigued. The Wikitude Browser that was our first introduction to the AR scene proved to be neat and a little creepy at the same time. While we now have a new player on the AR scene with the Layar Browser which brings over 2,000+ layers overlaid to your BlackBerry 7 device. This app definitely seems to be more directed to those of you that are really into sharing on social media. The app will allow you to share to Twitter and Facebook directly from within the app, and can be used for everything from print ads to physical signs etc. the bet part of this app is that it is free an therefore you aren’t having to shell out any cash to give it a try. So if you do have a BlackBerry 7 device I suggest you at least give this one a try. You can hit the jump to check out a video of the Layar Browser in action, and for more information you can visit Layar.com or you can check out the app in Appworld.
