Anyone on GoogleWave ?
 
Yup, but dont ask me how to use it to its full potential!
 
I'm on there too, got confused after a few minutes and haven't looked at it since.
 
yeah, that's exactly why i asked. was gonna see if anyone knew what it was for, and then tell me how the hell to use it :P
 
Used it for one evening, it made little sense, kept loosing a connection (to whatever it was connected) and just got a bit tedious. I doubt this is the last we will hear of it, but at the moment it does seem a little bit 'meh'
 
Same for me, finally got an invite and have hardly looked at it since.

Did anyone get their invite and then find they hadn't got invites to send out to people they knew which effectively left them waveless! :(
 
Think I will "wave:wave:" goodbye to it.
 
Another confused user here! Looked into it for 5 minutes and couldn't work out how to use it so left it. No doubt I'll be back to it at some point though.
 
"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."

I wasted an hour before I gave up...

Anyone care to tell me what it's all supposed to be about? Am I missing something?
 
Chuckling as I type - One of the techie guys at work sent me an invite ages ago, and I duly signed up. However I've yet to find any reason for using it as I don't know anyone else to "share" my "live" document/conversation with !!! - Not much point in using it with yourself as sole participant so gave up.... :shrug:

I'll have to dig out my user details and see if it's changed since I last tried to use it. Perhapse we could start a TP Wave between us !

I can see the utility of it as a collaboration tool, but I don't think it's reached the critical mass yet - you need to know enough people who also have it for it to actually be any use.

so far my Wave conversation has consisted of "what's this do ?" and "so, what now ?"

If you really would like to know watch the google video on it..

So far I'm in a few public waves,I've already saved money on a gear bag thanks to another user recommending another one..

You can edit and share files easily,Me and one of my class mates were sharing and editing lecture notes last night,It is great
