New MSN beta invites (formerly "Anyone on MSN?")

Published on December 15, 2005 By BlueDev In Internet

Perhaps this reveals just what a loser I am, the fact that I have to come here begging for e-friends.

Nevertheless, here I am, doing just that. I received an invitation to participate in the beta for Windows Live Messenger, the next generation of the whole MSN messenger and such. The thing is, since I don't use my MSN email address that much, I don't have that many contacts who are on MSN (or Hotmail, you know the game). I would like to actually test this new software, so I am humbly asking for people who are interested or willing to allow me to add them to my MSN messenger contact list.

Don't worry, I promise I am not trying to get email addresses for SPAM purposes, or anything nefarious such as that. I just figured I would actually participate in this beta since I received the invite. Here is my MSN info, that anyone interested may add: PeteyjonesATmsnDOTcom

Obviously, the words instead of the symbols are to prevent random email harvesting for SPAM bots. Thanks gang.

Edit: Well, I was mailed three more beta invitations this morning, so if anyone is interested in an invitation to use Windows Live Messenger beta, send me an email at the above MSN email address. I will send invites to the first three interested emails or IM's I receive (if I am online).

jdcerebro@techie.com <-- Anyone can add me if they so desire. I have a 'Skinners' section for just such a purpose.

Yep, I got beta invites as well, so if anyone is interested in playing with the new WIndows Messenger, just drop a line here and I will be happy to send until I am out.

Sorry folks, they only gave me two invites and they have already been claimed. There is a thread at Neowin.net to ask for invites, and if I get any more I will be sure to let people know. Also, if others have some they want to share, they are more than welcome to use this thread for that purpose.
