I'm on Wave. The lack of contacts makes it sort of boring at this point--I don't have much use for it aside from fucking around with gadgets.

I've heard it mentioned a lot on Twitter, but I have no idea what it is; I'd really like to find out, and since it's supposed to be invites-only, here's my email:

I think it's interesting - definitely something to keep an eye on - though I don't have any invites of my own to pass out.
But yeah, the lack of contacts make it kinda boring. However, my husband is writing his novel via google wave. It's fun to watch.

I'd love an invite as well. It'd make networking for my site easier (once its developed), and it just sounds pretty damn awesome. If someone wants to invite me, fire off an email to justinbarlow@rroarm.com :)

Wave is interesting, but it is still a long way from any kind of real use. I've been using it on a daily basis for fun with a bunch of my friends and have noticed some serious slowness once a wave reaches 150+ posts... which forces us to have to recreate the thread multiple times in a day ><

Also, wave is terribly slow in anything except for Chrome and unbearable on my mac. I downloaded waveboard, but that's still rather slow and occasionally I get the error "Browser Not Supported," which I find hilarious since I'm using a product the MADE specifically for the wave. I just wish they'd focus their efforts on getting Chrome out for the mac. I love chrome. Don't leave me hanging, google!

Overall, using wave as a giant chatroom.... does not work out well, but I can see its potential. It'll just take a heck of a lot more improvements for it to actually reach that potential.

I have a Wave I would totally use if I could get my friends on it. We actually are collaborating on a project, but I'm the only one with a Wave.
