If you want real collaborating with documents, spreadsheets, etc use microsoft groove. If you want chat collaboration set up a freakin chat room in AIM. Google wave seems like nothing more then a message board that lets you send videos.

ppl say these things every time a product launches & the day it will be a big hit …u will say i was the first one to point out it will succeed .
so i do not agree with u.
I know there are lots of things to be worked out in wave..but in all the idea is so nice … & the platform is so wide that it can take lots of things into it..so i will not be surprised at all if wave becomes a big hit & u writing an article on that again!

With you on the usability and lack of a need for it just now.

It’s a bit difficult to handle just now and a bit hard to find the point to it at the moment…

that said, i’m sure it will come good once the bugs are ironed out and developers get creative with apps for it!

Interesting one. First up I haven’t received my invite yet, although I am on the list.

I watched the demo video all the way through and have to say I could see great benefits using Google wave, particularly as in my business my people are split far and wide across the globe.

Hopefully the problems you encountered are just teething problems, but I must admit I had high hopes from “Wave” and it seems there is still some way to go!

Thanks for the review.
Cheers

At my college we use a different tool for working on our projects online.
Its free and needs no installation since its online, go to http://www.showdocument.com

Great post.

I have to agree.

That said, I think it has a lot of potential, but a loooong way to go just yet.
