> If it's a beta version, why is it public then?

Sometimes when you are trying to experiment new things, you don't have any
choices than to experiment "live".

Look at Google News (http://news.google.com/), it has been launch to the
public several months ago (nearly a year) and it is still Google News
"Beta".
