@eponymoushipster go to googlewaveinvites.com It’s a site some adventurous soul put up for people with invites to share to the world. You just sign up and hope basically
No shortage of hype about it, is there? Time will tell, I guess, whether it’s actually any use. I’m not going to lose any sleep trying to get hold of an invite.
This is like, the 3rd or 4th thread I’ve seen about this “google wave” thing. Wtf is it? I went to the sight, but I don’t feel like watching an hour and half movie to find out.
I’m “in”, but I don’t quite know what to make of it yet since noone I’ve invited has actually gotten their invite yet. It’s very lonely, and I want to try out a wave. My basic understanding is that multiple people can edit and mess with a “wave” simultaneously. A collaborative Gmail type environment, with embedded video, pictures, widgets, etc.
I didn’t request an invite – one came on my Gmail account. I haven’t played with it as yet, not sure that I will find it useful. I already use Skype conference, video and file transfer.
RE: INVITES I’m pretty sure most (if not all) accounts to not include the ability to invite others as gmail did. This is based on the number of votes for the “add invites!” ideas, and my own lack of invites. For now, Wave remains in “internal-approval only, preview mode.” Best bet is to request one from Google directly.
I finally got one! You get 8 invites, (The option to invite is in one of the three Waves you get by default). I sent some to my other gmail accounts so I could get some more >: )
Just send me your e-mail and I’ll send you an invite when I can. Namaste.
