I just received my invite to Google’s new communication / collaborative web app, Google Wave [beta]. Without reading any instructions on how to use this tool, I can say that if anything, it’s just a glorified Instant Messaging program. I see no where I can add photos or files. Only where to send hyperlinks.
Not Another Contact List To Maintain!
The thought of creating and maintaining yet another contact list when when I have established sets on Twitter and Facebook makes me cringe. Why doesn’t Google just buy Facebook and Twitter already? This would make something like this much more feasible.
Slow Interactions
At least with Facebook and Twitter I could start interacting immediately with my friends. Even though, it appears that I have 20 or so friends who are also testing out Google Wave, interactions have been kinda slow.
Again, I have only received my invite and am just giving thoughts on my first impressions. Things may change in the next couple of days. Will keep you posted.
In the meantime I think I should really pay attention to Mashable’s Google Wave: A Complete Guide for some insights on how to make the most of this.
Have you tried it? Give me some tips please
