Google Wave Invitations

GoogleWave Logo Google Wave has become a popular topic on all tech forums and blogs. It was released for developers, but now Google team made it available to 1 million users.

For those who don’t know what is Google Wave, read the following excerpts from Wikipedia -

Wikipedia says:

Google Wave is designed as a new Internet communications platform. It is written in Java using OpenJDK and its web interface uses the Google Web Toolkit. Google Wave works like previous messaging systems like email and Usenet, but instead of sending a message along with its entire thread of previous messages, or requiring all responses to be stored in each user’s inbox for context, message documents (referred to as waves) that contain complete threads of multimedia messages (blips) are perpetually stored on a central server.

Google Wave is an open source tool and Google team is planning to make its source code public so that developers can design interesting applications for it.

Google’s new tool is very innovative and much advanced as compared to today’s social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook. Let’s take a quick look at its important features.

Google Wave Features

  • Open Source
  • Innovative way of communication
  • Video support
  • Easy and fast file sharing
  • Unique interface
  • Mobile Support
