A Glimpse At Google Wave
Many internet users, especially Google enthusiasts, are very much excited over the coming of Google Wave. It is an advanced real-time communication and collaboration tool which combines the aspects of email, wikis, chat, social networking, instant messaging, and organization of tasks or project.
During the Google Wave demonstration, this was mentioned to be a magical product. Some people may be skeptical and just think that this was just a promotional thing to create hype and get people to try this new innovation from the same brain behind Google Maps.
Google Wave is a cross between Gmail and Facebook/Twitter with a twist. You can send email, chat with friends, share pictures, and post shoutouts as well as managed your projects. It has several features and applications which most internet users will certainly enjoy using and exploring.
Among the great things that you can do using Wave are:
*You can see what your friend is typing, character-by-character. But, you can also disable this function if you don’t want to let them to see some of your typing errors or slow typing skills.
* You can also embed on any website. You can write your comments or any thoughts to your friend’s website, and then reply again through your Wave client.
*Editing your conversations within the Wave’s platform is easily done because of its Wiki feature. You can edit or correct some of your write-ups or add comments as well as other details because all conversations within the platform are shared.
*If you forgot some of your previous conversations, you can retrieve that because of Wave’s playback functionality. Just scroll to any part of the wave to see what was written or shared.
*You can communicate with a foreigner who doesn’t speak your language with Wave. If you are an English speaking guy having some conversation with a French gal, Wave can translate what you are saying to each other. This is communication at its best.
* To share files or photos, you just got to drag and drop the files and photos that you want others to access.
*To foster innovation and improvement of Google Wave’s function and applications, the code will be open source amongst developers.
