I had assumed that you meant two ways to do the same thing visible at the same 
time...am I right?
 
Not sure if this fits the bill, but the "upload" process on 
www.kodakgallery.com has a high-speed widget you can download, or a more 
traditional web-based upload.  Both are displayed under the same functional 
header, and the slower one is not really described in detail...it seems like 
they are pushing the faster one.  Check it out, maybe this will give you some 
insight.

Subject: [IxDA Discuss] how to position a new "beta" feature -- examples?



I imagine this might be a tough one, but you IxDAers never fail me, so
here goes.

Can anyone think of any sites that are currently offering two versions
of a particular *feature*, classic and beta?

To be clear, I'm NOT looking for:
- brand new sites that are still in beta testing mode
- existing sites that have an entire beta replacement site to try out
(e.g. Gmail's Older Version / Newer Version)

Instead I'm looking for sites that have, say, two different searches
available - their old search, and a new search that they're testing. The
feature doesn't have to be a search - any sort of discrete tool WITHIN a
website will do.

I'm just trying to pick up ideas of how to position such a beta, and how
to transition people in and out of it. It seems easy but my client has
some unusual limitations, so I'm in idea-gathering mode.

Thanks as always,
Meredith
