Swype, an alternative keyboard for Android that allows users to type out messages by just dragging their fingers over the virtual keyboard, has been in a closed beta stage for quite a while now. Recently it has been made open again. It is uncertain to why the beta has been reopened but it’s probably to get a larger testing audience in order to sniff out anymore problems before the keyboard is publicly released. Head over to the beta site and register if you’d like to take part- the offer is only available for a limited period of time. How many of you prefer using Swype over your default keyboard?
