Just curious to know how many of you are Beta testers?

I am.  It isnt hard to become a beta tester.  I am currently Beta Tester for Microsoft MSN Messenger 7.0, Microsoft Baseline Security 2.0, and Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2.

I applied but never got a reply

What are the responsibilities of a beta tester, aside from reporting bugs? Or is that all?

"Beta Tester Role

A beta tester is someone who installs, tests and reports bugs for a product. Your role in our testing process is crucial as it helps to ensure that we are releasing well-tested, high quality products that meet our customer’s needs. As a beta tester, we rely on you to provide feedback regularly. If you are unable to actively test and report bugs or do not wish to test a beta product that you have received, notify us by sending e-mail to the program alias found in the specific program section within the ‘Enrolled Beta Programs’ area of this web site"

Ah, I see, thanks. I dunno if I could report bugs... I think I'm too lazy

hehe nah i'd love it , plus it's something nice to put on your CV (think americans call it a resume) especially if you wanna go into the ICT job area [which i do]

Funny thing is I cancelled my .NET Passport, and I had forgotten I used that for the Beta Microsoft.

I contacted them and they changed it!

But I'm still not approved.

I can't remember when I signed up. But I have a lot of time on my hands, beta testing would help me not to get bored.

Yeah, I've got a lot of time on my hands too... I might consider beta testing...
