Official Google Wave Kickoff Thread

The Google Wave thread in Chit-Chat may not be seen by all on the portal, so I'll start the thread here. I probably will not be able to start the wave and invites, so that will need to be determined here. Additionally, let's at least have some sort of organization so that the whole wave doesn't become scattered with random off topic information; we can determine that here as well.

If you need an invite to Google Wave, post a request here. If you don't know what google wave is, go to www.googlewave.com. It's an email/chat program with collaborate documentation rolled up all into one. Drag/drop photos, MS paint drawings, MS power point drawings, etc, and then discuss each right below the object itself. Should be interesting.

From the other thread, these are those who have invites and have expressed interest so far:

clowdude (Wiifi, FRC2470)
j3ffr3ym (Jeff_801, FRC801)
rharo.jr (robodude03, FRC399)
burmeister.twosevennine (Burmeister #279, FRC279)
demosthenes2k8 (demosthenes2k8, FRC166)
njsmith04401 (Nate Smite, FRC000)
youthec (rtfgnow, FRC79)
failbolt (Karibou, FRC1189)
wikichris (Chris is me, FRC1714)
boydean (Boydean, FRC2430)
brendan.w.browne (BrendanB, FRC1519)
aticris (JesseK, FRC1885)

To add your name, simply copy the list and append your google wave name, CD name, and FRC team to it -- that way everyone knows who each other is on the wave. See you there!

I don't think it has been started yet. No use in getting it flooded with info before January 9th :rolleyes:

Also have a ton of invites... If anyone needs one, send me a PM

I think it would be a good idea to start a test wave so that everyone can get a chance to use if before kickoff.

And I also have invites if anyone else needs one!

Re: Official Google Wave Kickoff Thread

We've had a test wave going for a little while, but we'll probably have to make another one nearer kickoff-this one's crowded with team discussion and thoughts.

I'll add you guys to it.

I'm not sure what it does on your browser, but to me it seems as the Wave gets bigger it gets slower... I certainly enjoy it though!

I'm also running firefox, but I'm considering switching over to Chrome now. Running Vista with 2gb of RAM if I remember correctly.

Also I have 18 invitations left if anyone would like one pm me.

We can create a google group with these names @gmail.com, and then add (group-name)@googlegroups.com (it will give you an error, hit return to add it anyway), and then just use that group. I am doing this now (and adding all of these names) to frc-wave@googlegroups.com.

Google wants this. It tests their system. I wonder if they'll allot one of their customer service employees to get us started on all of the non-chat features that Wave has. You know, things like plugins for polls, charts, etc. If not, then I know what I'm doing the week leading up to kickoff.

This is what I call stress testing, I know at work we hate writing stored procedures where there is no data and the customer isn't 100% sure how data will be filled. Sometimes we guess wrong and a join is out of order and the performance just goes down the drain. We once had a customer go live only to find out that the sprocs that ran great when we had a dozen records ran like a smoked motor with 1 million records. It is better to find those issues when you are testing than when your customer is trying to produce parts. (Trust me, they get REALLY whiny when they can't run production) I would think Google would love having us hammer away on their system.

Oh yeah, I am in the Wave but don't check all that often. (schreiaj but it should display as Andrew Schreiber)

Re: Official Google Wave Kickoff Thread

Keep in mind that not all discussion will take place in the main wave. If a subset of people have an idea, then they can start a new wave to discuss the idea and invite the appropriate people. As the discussion intensifies, people who have done something before (such as swerve, etc) could be invited for their input.

This is where the wave bots would come in, so that pieces of the main wave are copied into the new wave.

Polls could be placed in the main wave as well in order to gauge initial thoughts from a larger perspective.

Since this wave is public, an easy way to access it is to type "with: public tag:kickoff" into the Wave search bar. So far this wave is the only result. After clicking on the wave click the "Follow" button and it will appear in your inbox.

Re: Official Google Wave Kickoff Thread

Ok guys, we have some decisions to make. Simply put, our web browsers will not be able to handle the amount of traffic that will occur on kickoff day with 100+ people on the wave. With 3 people typing at once yesterday firefox was hitting 500MB of memory and 100% cpu time. It'd also be practically inefficient to try to read what 100+ people are typing all at once anyways. So I'd like to propose working groups. These would be groups of people on a waves of whom are attending different regionals, work on different subsystems, etc.

If we want to start a MWR wave, for example, then we'd go to the "Regional Competitions" forum and start a thread just for those attending that regional. We can discuss strategies, robots, CA, how to help teams through inspections (especially those who don't think they need any help...), etc. As a more public and permanent place to put those types of things, we can start a CD thread with the results.

What do you guys & gals think?

I do tend to be the uninformed one.) But I don't think many of the teams check here enough to benefit from the waves anymore than they would from CD.

That being said. Where would someone like myself go? I am pretty sure I am not the only one in this situation. I could stick with CD only seeing as I have no wave to join. Or would I find a Wave about drivetrains, end effectors, or chassis that was meant for another regional? What would you suggest?

Re: Official Google Wave Kickoff Thread

I would like to remind people that Wave is in preview. I should also remind you how much Brandon and all of CD has done to make this forum a resource for teams. Let's not pack everything up and move over to Wave. We are settled here as a forum. Wave is for instant chats. We seem to be confused.

JesseK

17-12-2009 12:30

Re: Official Google Wave Kickoff Thread

That's the idea Alex, to do a sort of instantaneous chat about the game, etc. The hope would be to condense the first few days after kickoff into just a few hours, then put higher quality discussions on CD. It also may alleviate chit-chat bandwidth from CD.

It would also give Brendan inherent feedback on upgrade options, should the CD website ever move to html 5.0 or (::shudder::) wave itself. There are features of Wave that are html 5.0 features, and perhaps smaller upgrades can be made over time. I don't think Wave is appropriate for these forums because I don't think engineers really want to know what each other is thinking in real time. We need some sort of delay after typing a heated discussion out, giving us a chance to re-read it before the world sees it.
