First impressions is that Google Wave is (as someone else pointed out) the worst of IM and e-mail … and now Crackbook … I can see where it is leading.

Is the point of software design to build toys or tools?
It makes me softweary.

thanks for the article, I am too very concerned about offline data storage with Google Wave. What happens if I send credit card details within a Wave which everyone does with email even though they shouldn’t? Can it be deleted?? — more than likely the answer is No. Very worrying how people are moving more and more onto Internet computing, especially with the press conference on Google Chrome OS today. Very worrying indeed.
Thanks again

While it seems like it could be an interesting new collaboration and chatting tool among close friends, I would be hesitant to introduce this into a work setting because I could see people being inappropriately tagged into the sensitive materials very easily. Also, “live” typing has been around for years and was a staple part of ICQ chat (people hated it then lol). Google Wave will need to decide whether it is a workplace product or a new Facebook… if it just sort of sits in the middle, people won’t very be quick to make this their #1 form of online interaction.

Some friends and I have been experimenting with Wave, with exactly the same results. We find real-time typing creepy, and the editing function had the effect that any monkey should have been able to predict: the entire Wave, whatever it originally said, now says “Alex likes to eat poop.” “He sure does.” “My name is Alex and I love eating poop.” I mean…duh.

For web conferences you should try http://www.showdocument.com ,
Great for online teaching and collaborating. I use it for working on my designs with other in my field.
Its free and pretty simple – you just upload your file and invite others to view it together.
