Still trying to get a handle on Google Wave. Its awesome, but still mighty raw.

I listed a bunch of good and bad facts, I wanted to see how they compare to other’s notions thus far.

The Good:

  1. Streamlined communication
  2. Streamlined and more cohesive multi-person document editing
  3. Just of the Lol

The Bad

  • It’s email where half of your contact list or more doesn’t own a computer
  • Sluggish response on most browsers
  • Massive list of features, means steep learning curve

The Ugly

  • People who got the first round of invites and did nothing with them
  • People who rush to judgement on the system
  • BETA, this is a real beta, preview is what google has to call it because they watered the term BETA down.

I added this little bullet list to a wave, and tried to plug it into this blog post, if you’re on wave feel free to add, modify or change. my wave addy is

caffination@googlewave.com

By the By, if you don’t have a Wave account the spot below will have a login screen, because apparently i can’t make a wave publicly viewable to those outside the beta, so sorry
