Google Wave Preview

Posted By Mr.Gadget  Published in Upcoming, google

There’s a lot of buzz on the Internet, especially social media channels about Google Wave.

Google Wave is a new tool for communication and collaboration on the web, coming later this year. Watch the demo video below, sign up for updates and learn more about how to develop with Google Wave.

My initial thoughts are mixed. While it is feature-rich and has great potential, it seems there is much to learn and not something you could pick up and learn quickly? I am of course comparing this to my current social media fave at the moment -  Twitter.

Be warned; the video below is a whopping 1 hour and 20 minutes long. The nerve of posting up something this long on YouTube. It’s like they own it or something! :P

Interested to hear what you think.

Though I haven’t watched the video as I can’t be bothered due to the unnecessarily internet limitations in Australia, I read up briefly on it and must say I will probably enjoy it more than Facebook.

The combination of utilities and things to do looks a lot more versatile, functional, and friendly; learning curve? Only a bit.

And I compare with Facebook because you can’t compare using Twitter.

One hour is a bit much.

If it takes one hour to explain a new technology I think it’s overkill.

Then again, with so many “Dummies Guide to _”, I think Google probably wanted to make sure ‘everyone’ understands this new interface, no questions asked – hopefully. :P
