Have you had a change to use Google Wave yet?
I have and I have to say it is amazing.
What is Google Wave you ask?
I could say to watch the video at Google Wave. If you ask me to put it on my own words, then I would have to say it’s an awesome online collaborator.
The more you play with Google Wave, the more you would envision the end of three technologies:
• Email
• Online chat
• Networking sites.
Google Wave allows you to have all these technologies plus the Google API and its ability to create application. You have mega a online system in a fashion that only Google can provide.
Google wave is currently in its Alpha stage so your obstacles at this point are:
• Google wave is open in an invite only.
• Even though Google wave is running good, as with many Alpha stage systems it does not work good all the time.
• Not many people are on the system yet so you find yourself only most of the time.
I have also preview the iPhone application version of Google Wave. I love the fact that the iPhone app is easy to navigate through but I was really disappointed on the time that it takes to open. Also I notice that most image links are broken.
As I sue Google wave I can immediately tell that its uses academic and professional uses will be invaluable. From been able to collaborate in a project between all your colleagues at work to hosting a study group for a university course, Google wave (in its full release form) would be a most use system.
I would have to say that even with all of this issue here listed, I just cannot wait for Google wave to come out as a full release.
