virtual Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Has anyone got their invitation to Google Wave yet? I just got mine today, but I don't have a lot of people showing up in Contacts, so it's going to be difficult trying it out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susie Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I know I could search for the answer, but what is Google Wave anyway? I see it all over my Twitter feed, but I've no clue what it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrea Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I don't know how to sum it up and explain - http://wave.google.com/help/wave/about.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virtual Posted November 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 (edited) It's still in Beta, but this is what you can do for the moment, as long as you have Contacts to experiment with. A bit like an free online meeting. I'm still a little confused myself Keep a single copy of ideas, suggested itinerary, menu and RSVPs, rather than using many different tools. Use gadgets to add weather, maps and more to the event. Prepare a meeting agenda together, share the burden of taking notes and record decisions so you all leave on the same page (we call it being on the same wave). Team members can follow the minutes in real time, or review the history using Playback. The conversation can continue in the wave long after the meeting is over. Collaboratively work in real time to draft content, discuss and solicit feedback all in one place rather than sending email attachments and creating multiple copies that get out of sync. Bring lots of people into a wave to brainstorm - live concurrent editing makes the quantity of ideas grow quickly! It is easy to add rich content like videos, images, URLs or even links to other waves. Discussion ensues. Etiquettes form. Then work together to distill down to the good ideas. Drag and drop photos from your desktop into a wave. Share with others. Use the slideshow viewer. Everyone on the wave can add their photos, too. It is easy to make a group photo album in Google Wave.

Susie Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Sounds cool, but I see where it could be useless if nobody else in your circle has it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkencreative Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Sounds cool, but I see where it could be useless if nobody else in your circle has it. Agreed. That's the same thing with any other social networking type site... Twitter, Facebook, etc... Personally, I don't really "get" Wave either.

virtual Posted November 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Well it's still in Beta and on invitation only, so it will be a while before it takes off like all those other social networking sites. Knowing Google I'm sure they will give it enough hype to make it take off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
