FT Alphaville " Welcome to FT Betaville FT Alphaville is in testing-mode! We've been working behind the scenes with FT Labs to improve the site, and we're very excited about how it's been coming along. Want to take a test drive? Markets Live will run a two part session on Tuesday, October 2nd. It'll start out in the normal place for the first half hour, from 11am London time. Around 11:30, we'll stop the session, send our pre-selected Betaville testers a link to the new site, and the session will resume. To be a tester, please email us in advance, providing details of your operating system and browser (that you'll use on October 2nd). Please also attach a screenshot of the details of your browser so that we can verify the exact version you are using. When we're running the session, we'd love to get feedback from you about the quality of the user experience. Should you spot anything odd, please take a screenshot and email us a description of what happened. Alternatively, just interrupt Paul and Bryce to tell us what's borked when they are trying to talk about markets... We'll take up to four testers for each of these setups (updated as of 16:00 London time Friday): Win/IE 6-9 - 1 betavillian Win/Firefox - 1 betavillian Win/Chrome - oversubscribed like mad! Mac/Safari - 2 betavillians Mac/Firefox Mac/Chrome Linux/Whatever you want you clever bugger, but there might be a prize for... - 1 betavillian Linux/SeaMonkey If you do the maths, that means there are only 32 spaces, so hurry up and email us at ftbetaville@gmail.com to save your space! Thanks in advance for your help, and see you on Tuesday, at FT Betaville. This entry was posted by Lisa Pollack on Friday, September 28th, 2012 at 14:02 and is filed under Uncategorised.
