Catch a Wave Google wave that is.
As you can see from the title and the included video(props and credit to whomever posted this over at youtube)
This post is about waves, not that sad, arena wave, or ocean waves, or even waving to a friend. No, my children, this is about the phenomena known as Google Wave. They’ve started rolling it out, albeit in limited,invite only form. If you’re lucky enough to have some uber cool friends that invited you, great, if not sorry about your luck I’m sure yours is lost in the mail.
It seems like a great thing, with a ton of potential. There are a million videos and websites that extol it’s virtues,shortcomings and how it’s the next big thing. I will not go into that here. My biggest issue thus far is not having anyone to wave to, um at ummm with? I guess it would be wave with. I’m sure greater minds know the correct terminology. Where was I? Right, no one to interact with. I’m certain there are eleventy million hundreds already using it. I have 3 contacts. I know! I am just that cool. No really, ask anyone like my mom, my wife or even certain people on twitter(no not them, those other people).
So, with this in mind, I propose to make a list of users, you can post a reply here with your GW contact info, or if we follow one another on twitter, DM me there and I’ll add you. It only gets better when people use it, right? So, get those cards and letters in err comments, and I’ll get the list up in a follow-up blog.
