If you're looking to test some of the cool features coming to Xbox LIVE then you might just be interested in signing up for the Xbox LIVE Preview Program.

It's a chance to experience some core improvements for your Xbox 360 Console - before anyone else.

Sign up is completely free for all Xbox LIVE members but as with every beta, spaces will be limited. Don't hesitate to apply now and avoid disappointment. What have you got to lose?

Major Nelson's Blog:

wrote At E3 we announced the new Xbox LIVE dashboard which will deliver intuitive navigation, increased responsiveness and improved engagement with Xbox experiences all beginning this holiday. Now that our work on the dashboard is almost complete, we are announcing an open call for all Xbox LIVE members to register to participate in a preview program to help us test the system. This is an important program as we continually strive to ensure the reliability of a service that reaches tens of millions globally. We could not do so without the ongoing help of our great community.
Once this program is kicked off, an update will be pushed to your console that will contain select dashboard features, including:
New design for integrated Kinect and controller navigation
New Beacons to play online with friends
Deeper Facebook integration
New Cloud Storage for Game Saves and Xbox LIVE Profile
Other features and entertainment partner apps may come into view during the program period.
Note: A console in the program is expected to remain fully compatible with standard retail consoles not in the program. (e.g. party chat will function)
For those familiar with previous registrations for our program, we have a new model for registering your consoles this year. The new model is a more automated process that should make it easier for you. We will not ask you to type in your console information upon initial registration; once you are approved to participate in the program, look for details on our portal about how to register your console.
Click here for the initial register for the Public Preview.
The latest information will be available to you via the [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] program portal.

You'll get to experience the new and majorly improved interface before anyone else - which also includes deeper interegation with facebook as well as a revamped dashboard and navigation system.

You'll be getting exclusive access to Cloud Storage; a completely new feature, allowing you to store all of your gamesaves and profiles via Xbox LIVE. You won't be so quick to lose all of that playing time with a secure backup on Cloud Storage.
