Glass Catalyst

June 30th, 2010

Border Stylo is looking for Catalysts.

We’re a rapidly growing internet start-up that’s ready to make the internet a better place for everyone, and we want you to be a part of it.

We’re assembling a team of Catalysts for our summer program who will help champion our new product, Glass, across the web. The Catalyst Program is a three-week crash course in web product and evangelist-based marketing.

What is a Glass?
Glass is an addon for the Firefox browser that creates a virtual canvas over the entire internet. This allows you to share your thoughts online by literally placing notes on top of any website for your anyone you choose. We’re currently in Beta, so you’ll be one of the first to have access to this brand spanking new technology. For a quick preview of Glass, check out our Quickstart video here: https://www.writeonglass.com/#help/quickstart.

To actually use Glass, you’ll need an invite code. Go to https://www.writeonglass.com/ and enter this code: catalyst

What is a Catalyst?
We want sharers and doers, bloggers and social media mavens, who love new technology and staying ahead of the curve. You’ll be on the web, sharing experiences through Glass with friends and family, and collecting feedback as well. This is a great opportunity for students who love to discover and share new technology with their social networks. If you enjoy legitimately cool things and sharing via the web, we welcome you to apply. This is a great opportunity to familiarize yourself with the growing social media market

What do Catalysts do?
As a Catalyst, you will:

• Participate for 3 weeks in this fast-paced program
• Learn how to use the exclusive Beta version of Glass
• Recruit users from your personal, professional and academic networks
• Send invites via Glass, email, Facebook and Twitter
• Give Glass tutorials for prospective users
• Use Glass with friends and other Catalysts
• Track tasks, self-managing your work from home
• Earn points as you complete tasks
• Accumulate enough points to earn a spot on the All-Time Glass Catalyst Leaderboard

Why be a Catalyst?
Catalysts will have a direct line to the creators of Glass, from Engineering and Data Products, to Marketing and Strategy. Although you’ll be working remotely, you can develop relationships with these technology professionals, bolstering both your digital rolodex and professional resume from the comfort of your home. Top performing Catalyst could be awarded exclusive Glass swag, reserved only for our team members and superfans.

How do I become a Catalyst?
To apply for this opportunity, please send us your resume to catalyst@borderstylo.com. Include a brief cover letter in your email describing why you’d make a good Catalyst.
