Key's to beta have been given out on gamescom and i think it have been given out on pax also.
other than that i guess you need to have patience and look for advertisement for closed beta around the www.
The only keys given out on these 2 events that "Guarantee" an invite are the VIP ones where the card look WAY different then the other keys that only give you a "Chance" at beta.
My impression is they're giving out the chance keys because they intend to pull a certain % of the beta invites each phase from different pools of people.

The reason why they said follow us on facebook, twitter and signup for the newsletter is because when they announce closed beta signups they will also post the information there.

i think its will be come a lottery for beta-keys on Facebook/twitter, like other games.
for a higher chance u can registrate on the rift forum and read and write there
I registered for the beta 2 months ago and got no beta key. How do i get one then?
Randomly selected from the forums.
Facebook once or twice a day they have a question you answer(first 10 win), or keys they give away (you have to be first to enter them)
Twitter has a question once a day to give away 5
They have contents, and the riftpodcast also gives away keys.
This isn't really for a full beta, but for weekend events.
Drop the next-gen marketing and people will argue if the game itself has merit.
