\"Guinea

Buttercup the guinea pig loves to snuggle<\/p><\/div>\n

Greetings, Beta Testers!<\/p>\n

Several weeks ago, a select group of guinea pig bloggers and social media trend-setters were asked to join the wheek.it<\/span> as an elite team of volunteer Beta Testers.<\/p>\n

To those who registered, THANK YOU!<\/em> Your participation as a Beta Tester will help to create a better, easier way to raise money online for guinea pig rescues.
\n<\/p>\n

\n

Register as a Beta Tester<\/h2>\n

If you’re reading this post in your email inbox, then you’re already registered. However, if you’re seeing this post for the first time on the wheek.it<\/span> blog, you should sign-up to be a Beta Tester here<\/a>.<\/div>\n

What Do I Have To Do<\/h2>\n

As a Beta Tester, you are tasked with three very important responsibilities:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Use wheek.it<\/span> as your primary URL shortening service (goodbye, Bit.ly!)<\/li>\n
  2. Use wheek.it<\/span> at least twice per week<\/strong> to shorten links you share on Facebook and Twitter<\/li>\n
  3. Participate in two 5 – 10 minute Beta Tester surveys (one in January and one in February 2013)\n<\/ol>\n
    \n

    Beta Testing: January and February 2013<\/h2>\n

    The Beta Test period has been extended to include both January AND February 2013. This was done in order to allow for the collection of a broader range of insights and beta evaluations to help make wheek.it<\/span> better.<\/div>\n

    What’s Next<\/h2>\n

    First<\/u>, start using wheek.it<\/span> to shorten ANY links you share on Facebook, Twitter, or other social profiles beginning January 1, 2013<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Second<\/u>, next week, an in-depth introduction to Beta Tester responsibilities will be posted on the blog and filed in the Beta Tester<\/a> category.<\/p>\n

    Thanks again for your commitment to use wheek.it<\/span> during the beta test period. Your participation is so important to us!<\/p>\n

    We Love Questions<\/h2>\n

    Questions? We love ’em, and please send any and all to admin [at] wheek.it<\/strong> with the subject “Beta Tester”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
