Google Wave Preview
Jun 4th, 2009 by Johnny
I just came across this from Google. The Google Wave is awesome! At lease from their YouTube video from their developers conference. ![]()
Watch this 80 minute video. It is worth every minute of it. It blows your mind as to what Google is doing. Top it off, they are going to make this thing open-source and make it available for free for everyone to use. For more information on the Google Wave API, goto http://code.google.com/apis/wave/.
The self-created text UI (user interface) that they showed during the last 10 minutes of the video is awesome! I just love the efficientcy of text UIs, it gets the job done (of course not for photos or other visually/graphically required stuff).
Personally, I would love to be able to develop this new Google wave platform. Cannot wait until it is opened to everyone.
Real-time message conversations, better than threaded. Not just e-mail like or IM-like, but it is like a textual and visual conference via your browser and the Internet. It shares photos in real-time. It links (actually integrates) to social networking sites. It can do so much integration it makes wave the new Office suite. Microsoft look out!
Their translation robot is great, especially for multilingual companies. The spell checking extension robot is so good that I think that it would make people even worse spellers. Now this is really something that would tap the power of high-speed broadband and fast processing computers to good uses.

WOW … look at all the tweets on the term “Google Wave”
http://twitter.com/#search?q=%22Google%20Wave%22
excluding that bozo that keeps posting “make $600 a week with Google Wave”, which is bogus (guess they want to drive traffic from “get rich quick wannabees” to their dumb website).
