Tried to sign up. Spent about 5 minutes trying to figure what's wrong with my password. Got signed up. Of course the system lost track on my original intent to try the Bluemix. Tried to log in again. Got a security code question. Waiting for email. Okay. Punched the security code and got question on why exactly I want a trial. Answered. Got a message that they might give me a chance for a trial.

Corporate is so corporate.

Yeah, IBM is extremely weak on UX and design overall. I got accepted into the beta and once you're in it's no more intuitive. I will say that I'm pleasantly surprised they were able to put something like this together though - I wasn't sure what would come of their Cloud Foundry / OpenStack announcements last year.

Indeed. Watching the video, I've got an impression that they are trying to create a solution to their own big problem.
