It’s wave, Google Wave!

After a long anticipation and a few weeks of jealousy [when others were talking about it and I had not invitation], I finally got to use Google Wave – the great Google’s new project in coming.

I have 20 of my 635 Gmail contacts on Google Wave – most of them are not my regular contacts. So, my use of Google Wave is all about thinking of possibilities and learning about it.

So what I find? Wave is chat + email (including multimedia) + (optional crowdsourcing)! The best use could be for group discussions – as a journalist I say for group reporting or following large scale news like election or natural disaster. Better than using email in such scenario as its just function like group chat.

Threaded email – a great feature introduced by Gmail – looked confusing at the beginning but now I found it a must. This is threaded chat – with more possibilities.

Easier than Facebook to control who can see your updates (or wave). It’s not an alternative to Facebook or Twitter or even Gmail right now – but I feel – that the Google guys have kept all the doors open, as they go on, they will introduce everything and when they will have a good user base they will leave nothing to turn it into the one alternative to all such services!

They don’t have much extensions now but the scope for extensions is unlimited.

Not much of good things right now, but of course, with huge possibility to be ‘a must have’.

    GRAHAM POLL: People say that in the Olympics if some athletes are going to take drugs, then you should allow them all to take drugs. FIFA are applying the same warped logic to goalkeepers. VAR has shown us that offside is a black and white matter of fact now… a goalkeeper moving off his line for a penalty surely must be the same
