Microsoft Office Live Beta

Welp, I’m not sure how available these beta invites are yet, nor if this is actually allowed, but…

I have received a couple of these, and as I have no desire to actually test this product, if you want one, the first two people who drop me a comment on this post requesting a code are welcome to them.

Be sure to specify an email address when posting, so I can get back to you (it won’t be displayed in the comments, if that’s what you’re worried about.

    I’ll take one, would be interesting to try it out at work.

    Sent. Subject is “Fwd: The Microsoft Office Live Beta has arrived.” in the event you have overzealous spam filtering.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Hello Chris, I am most certainly interested in testing this beta.

    Abdul: Just sent yours. Subject line is the same as I said above. Hope you enjoy.

    That does it for Meller’s Windows Office Live Beta lottery, folks. Play again next time…

    Thanks alot for the invite. I guess you could get some traffic with this offer if it had been done my way :) i.e. Let the giveaway stay open for a couple of days, ping technorati and let the word spread. In the end select winners at random.
    Anyway, that’s just me ;) Once again, thanks for the invite!

    I thought about doing a contest of sorts, asking for the best reason you should get the invite, or looking for the best company slogan or something; especially after reading the comments on this post.

    Instead of taking that extra time, since these will likely become more and more easily available very quickly (uhh, I’ve already gotten 2 at the same email address, that should tell you something), I figured what the hell… Besides, I’d rather have someone I know (like you guys) get it, rather than some random person who only showed up to my blog to get what they wanted.

    Owrite… Your theory also makes perfect sense. My blog is popular for giveaways so most people come back only to see if I have something up for grabs.
    Did you hear about the earthquake in Mozambique? The shake with a magnitude of 7.5 disrupted my sweet dreams…

    *looks at his map*

    Ooohhh, that’s where Mozambique is!

    Actually, that was just me banging on your bedroom wall… You were snoring again. ;)

    Hahha… Well, the whole town was on the road. It lasted for quite long but fortunately it wasnt too violent to turn my building into a concrete cake!

    Anyway, its over now. Things are going back to normal.

    couldn’t say :-/ My work computer took a dump and died like a day later. Waiting for the replacement board to come in. but i’ll tell you how it is once I get back up and running.

    Because, you know, you couldn’t use any internet-accessible PC to access it…

  14. 14 Fadumpt

    well…the email is sorta kinda…well…how do you say? stuck..in the Inbox on said computer….thereby rendering it unavailable for human interface and retrieval. :)

    That’s why god gave man IMAP, to fend of the harddrive-locked POP3 blues.
