The call for BETA testers for Project Petaling Street v1.5 has gone much better than expected. To date, beta@aizuddindanian.com has received 98 confirmed applications and 26 inqueries about the test and what a BETA tester needs to do. Still 2 days before the deadline for applications. If you're interested to apply, please do so now.
The following are just some quick answers to some common questions:
- What are the responsibilities of a BETA tester?
A BETA tester will be required to test the public submit feature for PPS. Currently all the content you see on PPS comes from the core members. The 20-odd BETA testers will be added to this pool of content providers. Basically, we need to see what happens when a large number of bloggers begin submitting content into PPS. Once the test is successfully completed, submission of content to PPS will be open to the Malaysian blogging public. - What's in it for me?
Credit. You will be given credit on PPS as a BETA tester and a link will be provided back to your blog. There might even be a little something in store for the tester that provides the most valuable feedback. ;) - I use XXXXX blogging tool. Can i be a BETA tester?
Yup. In fact, we want as diverse a mix of testers as possible. So the more obscure your blogging tool, the better your chances for a successful application. :) - How long will the test last?
Anywhere between 7 and 14 days. Any longer only if there happens to be a break down in the system. - How will BETA testers communicate?
An mailing list for the duration of the test will be set up for the testers to use. - Does my blog have to be written in English?
No. Any Malaysian language will do - English, BM, Chinese, Tamil, etc.
