Making Sense of Google Wave
summary
Realtime collaborative platform that treats conversations as single hosted documents rather than multiple email copies, combines wiki/blog/chat/source-control ideas, and exposes a protocol for third‑party clients, gadgets and bots. It requires HTML5 so Internet Explorer users need Chrome/Firefox/Safari or Chrome Frame. Practical wins: drag‑and‑drop images with Gears, a Yes/No/Maybe gadget, a Ribbit conference gadget, and revision playback. A six‑person team assembles a 100‑page manuscript in four weeks using wave for coordination, but full email replacement is unlikely.
