Top 5 Betas You Might Not Be In

I’m always trying new sites and apps. Sometimes it’s hard to keep up with everything. Out of the latest betas I’ve taken part in, here are my top 5. Some betas require an invite code. I use Inviteshare to share any extra codes I have in hopes to exchange them for invite codes I want.

5. Ping.fm.

- A great alternative to Hellotxt.com that allows you to update multiple microblogs like Twitter and Pownce all in one shot.

4. Grandcentral.

- Now owned by Google, this site assigns you a local number and allows you to point all of your personal phone numbers to it so you can have your phone calls ring in multiple places and have one centralized voicemail box.

3. SocialThing.

- Helps manage your lifestream on multiple social sites and the friends you keep across them all.

2. Digsby.

- A new IM client for Mac, Windows, and Linux offers you a new, flexible interface. Might be a good alternative to Trillian, not so sure about replacing Pidgin or Adium with it just yet.

1. Joost.

- Many videos on demand from many different genres. Cool features include live channel chat while watching a video and “create a channel” with videos of your choice.
