    Hi Guys

    One for the mods I guess.

    I need some one to beta test my site (www.jobswithlanguage.com) and let me know if there are any obvious glitches or any thing I should do differently.

    What would be my best port of call? I mean which forum (if any)

    cheerio

    You could post it in DP's reviews forum, but you'll just get crap like "great site", "looks great" etc...

    Best just to do it yourself.
    Install something like VirtualBox and you can test your site using multiple OSs and browsers.
    I have an old Athlon machine running XP, OSX, and Mint/Ubuntu with all the most popular browsers installed for each OS.
    Works for me ... and I don't have to trust other people to tell me what's not working the way it should be.

    You could utilize Usabillia or Conceptfeedback. The lateral URL, you have to pay it forward by reviewing concepts and or website designs others have designed. Or you can pay to have experts to give you more detailed feedback on usability or other objectives you're trying to achieve with your website.

    To test IE compatibility try IETester. It can IE10 preview, IE9, IE8, IE7 IE 6 and IE5.5 - just like a time machine ;)
    and it is for free
