Our products are designed to help people form linked, online communities for socialization, learning and work. We take graphical chat to the next level -- offering security, expressiveness and flexibility.

The "beta" phase of software development exposes a new product to real people in the real world - outside the protective walls of its creators. To test our designs, we've built some virtual destinations of our own. We invite you to our online neighborhoods and challenge you to crash them in new and interesting ways.

This is your opportunity to glimpse the future -- the next step in the evolution of online communities. As a beta tester, you will participate in the formation of a new society.The beta test phase will shape the future of our software, our communities, and hey... possibly all of mankind!

Once you (and your hardware) have been accepted as an EC Beta Tester, you'll be kept up-to-date on the latest events and contests taking place within our beta community, as well as special projects and opportunities.

Take a few minutes and fill out the EC Beta Tester Application Form. We're looking for people with varied levels of experience with computers and the Internet, so just tell it like it is, and we hope to see you on the other side!
