Private Beta Invites – Free!
We all know there’s nothing cooler than being the first on the block to have that new gadget. And the same goes for having early access to that hot new website currently in beta.
Why? Well… We get the status of being an “insider,” but mostly I think we just like to have bragging rights.
Still, whatever the reason, having access to different websites before everyone else is a very cool thing. Not only do you get bragging rights, but it may give you the opportunity to grow your business by giving you a head start on the competition. However, sometimes it can be very difficult to get an invitation unless you know someone or buy it.
Yes…I said, “Buy it,” I’ve seen many invitations being bought and sold on eBay in the past.
So, before you go ahead and pull out your wallet or beg your friends or business associates for an invite to that cool new website, check out Mashable Invites. Mashable Invites, by the great people at Mashable.com, is an invitation swapping service solely for Web 2.0 websites. The service works very well, so check it out. And hopefully you have some invites to contribute to the community as well.
Nevertheless, this is one of the coolest services out there and a vital tool for anyone looking to get an edge on what’s coming out in tomorrow’s Web 2.0 world.

An automated means by which to obtain invites to social networks. How deliciously ironic, no?

Well, who said you have to be social to be social?
