OMG ! This is the best thing that can happen to a Chromebook fan. I am super jealous of those who got selected to this small group of pilot testers who will start getting new new Chromebooks being shipped from Google, to try them out and spread the word.
The ChromeBook Guru Program
Google has introduced a new pilot test program, taking the CR48 test pilot group to the next level. Selected members from the CR48 group will be given the Chromebook Guru title and will start receiving shipments of new Chromebooks from Google.
They can try these new Chromebooks, share them with their friends and family, ( this is where I get jealous of their friends and family too !! ) and share their thoughts on any networking site or blog about them. Google hopes to have an organic way of spreading the news about Chromebooks. Here is the email that they are sending out to selected candidates.
Over the past few months, you’ve gone above and beyond in the Chrome Notebook Pilot Forum– providing amazing feedback, helping others understand the vision and have truly been a champion for Chrome OS. Your involvement and feedback truly stood out from the rest– you were constantly engaged, willing to test, and passionate about what we’re doing. We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again– we couldn’t have done it without you.
That’s why we want to invite you to be a Chromebook guru. As a part of the Chromebook guru program, we will be giving out Chromebooks to a very small and select group of pilot users. The goal of this program is to extend the pilot spirit to all of the Chromebooks in our family and to help spread the word organically.
We’re eager to hear your feedback on the new device, and also hope that you’ll share it (both the device and your feedback!) with your friends and family. As a member of this program, you’re not under NDA, so you’re free to post any tips and tricks you come across in the forum, Amazon.com or any social networking sites you love– and, of course, share your thoughts and post a review (or an unboxing!) on these sites as well. As pilot users we know that you have a deep understanding of your Chromebook (and know who would love to take one home!) so we hope that you’ll help others decide if this is right for them and help explain the benefits and tradeoffs of Chromebooks to the world.
To get the ball rolling, please update your address here so we can begin shipping your device. Have additional questions? Shoot me an email!
So, congratulations! We really can’t thank you enough for being such an positive and influential part of the pilot program.
