Become a Facebook Beta Tester

We noticed this little message on our home page today, offering us to “apply to be a beta tester and get the first look at upcoming Facebook products.” Needless to say, we clicked it.
It links to a web form preceeded by the following message:
“We at Facebook are preparing to launch a brand new product to the world. We think it will be as exciting as Facebook Photos and Facebook Events, but we need your help to make it great.
As a beta tester, your job will be to ask great questions and provide great answers about your favorite topics. Economics? Skydiving? Relationships? Mexican Restaurants? It’s up to you. You’ll be the first person outside of Facebook to use this product. Your expert writing will be seen by tens of millions of people — including job recruiters. And we’ll bring our best beta testers out to California to tour Facebook headquarters and meet the team.“
In order to obtain exlusive beta access to this hot new “Questions” feature, which is likely to be a competitor to Yahoo! Answers and Quora, you have to submit three sample questions and answers to prove that “you can write clearly and authoritatively on familiar subject matter.“
The powers that be promise to send you more information within 24 hours of approval.
