Re: Google Wave

I have about 5 invites i'd be willing to spare for some robotics people. message me =)

As others have said, google wave is pretty much hype in my opinion. For friend-to-friend communication, I have facebook, aim, gmail, and Digsby to tie them all together, on top of the fact wave is still in beta and the only friends on are those I sent invites to. When/If facebook, myspace, twitter*, and gmail** become fully integrated in wave, just maybe I might use it for F2F.

On the other hand, for business collaboration, with a few (dozen) programmers to spare developing an app, Wave would work wonderfully.

As I said before, its still in beta. Its also still very slow (at least for me). I'll like it better when it goes full public I hope.

*found out twitter has a robot for wave but i don't know how it works
** as far as i can see, gmail contacts can not be imported yet. I also don't know if i can send messages to my mail contacts through wave.
