Google Wave. What Gives?

December 3,  2009 by David Zemens

waveI waited patiently to get my invitation to Google Wave. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, my Google Wave invitation came. Like a child on Christmas Day I followed the link and got Wave up and running. “Here we go”, I thought. Time to move into the next generation of email and collaboration tools.

Wow, was I disappointed. Quite frankly, I just don’t get it. And I don’t see what the big fuss is. I’ll be the first to admit that I haven’t used Wave for long, but quite frankly I am underwhelmed. I was expecting something that was going to knock me off my feet. Perhaps my expectations were too high. Perhaps the fact that this is Beta software still under development is a factor. Perhaps the fact that I just don’t full understand Wave’s capabilities is also a factor. But I just don’t see what all the hype was about. Heck, I see big names in the tech industry like Chris Brogan are Tweeting the same thing.

Like much of the world, I just love Google. I love Gmail, Analytics, Webmaster Tools, Google Apps, Google Docs. You name it, I love it. And I thought I would have the save reaction to Wave. But not to this point.

For anyone interested, I do have several Google Wave invitations left to pass on to others. If you would like one of those invitations, leave a comment below asking for one and I will send it your way.

What has your experience been with Google Wave? What am I missing? Please enlighten me!

I Work Here

Map of our location

Even though I work in metro Detroit, I have worked with clients from Seattle, Washington to Jacksonville, Florida. That pretty much covers all the United States.

I can work with your project, too!

Where Are You Located?

I am located in Rochester, Michigan but have worked with clients from coast to coast. Distance is never a problem. I’ll communicate with you quickly and you’ll feel that I’m just around the corner – no matter the distance between us.

1955

I was born in 1955. I'm old enough to remember the internet before "www" was around. Just white text on a black screen. No graphics. This means I'm experienced. Why not use my experience to your advantage?
