Blizzard just launched the new version of battle.net, which will link all blizzard games and support Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3. You can sign up now, and most importantly, register for beta testing on new games! This isn't a "starcraft 2 beta confirmed" type of deal, but its definitely the easiest way to get in the running when it eventually DOES happen.

One caveat is that to qualify you do need to have at least ONE other blizzard game to register. The cool thing is, you can put in the product key from any blizzard product and then they will give you the right to download a digital copy, just like steam. No more cd's!

You can also link this battle.net account to your world of warcraft account if you have one, so you have just one unified login.

It begins!

The email, which asks game writers to make sure they have a Battle.Net account set up and a request in, says that Blizzard has no date yet to announce for the start of the beta. The email ends, however, by saying that all Battle.net account login info for game writers needs to be sent to Blizzard by June 19.
