I'll have one, if they're still on offer, please. (spoodie AT gmail DOT com)

Google Wave is more fun when you have others to wave with, so please nominate people you would like to add. Keep in mind that this is a preview so it could be a bit rocky at times.

Invitations will not be sent immediately. We have a lot of stamps to lick.

Happy waving!

So, might take a while before you get one.

Unacceptable! I demand satisfaction!*

*Thanks, I'm in no hurry. I'm just curious to see what all the fuss is about.

it is an interesting idea, kind of like a MSOffice OneNote or wiki based email client, with added Google goodies.

I'm not sure about the public feed bots though. Seems that any conversation that you have on Wave may be being piped in real time to a blog that your boss / wife / the bloke you're slagging off can see and you might not know it. But thinking about that, I suppose slagging someone off over email is pretty much asking for them to get a copy of it sooner or later.

Added. Some people are reporting waits of 6-8 days before they get their invite, by the by.

btw Grimmie, do you know how did you got the invite? I requested it the day I started this topic, but I never really use my gmail/google account.

Yeah, I put my request in 2 months before you did.

You think that's funny? Do I amuse you?

Post by **HereComesPete** » October 15th, 2009, 19:20

Yes, but definitely not like a clown.
