What is Google Wave? - it’s the next BIG THING online

Google Wave is an online tool for real-time communication and collaboration.

A wave can be both a conversation and a document where people can discuss and work together using richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.

What is a wave?

A wave is equal parts conversation and document. People can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.

A wave is shared. Any participant can reply anywhere in the message, edit the content and add participants at any point in the process. Then playback lets anyone rewind the wave to see who said what and when.

A wave is live. With live transmission as you type, participants on a wave can have faster conversations, see edits and interact with extensions in real-time.

All the above was from the Google site http://wave.google.com/help/wave/about.html#video where you can watch a video to see how it works.

You can become an early adopter by signing up here https://services.google.com/fb/forms/wavesignup/

I’m waiting patiently for my invitation as it’s still in the development satge and you have to wait and be invited.

I think this technology will be ideal for someone like me, to be able to keep “conversations” with my clients in one place, rather than in email folders.

HURRY UP GOOGLE - send me my invitation!!!
