I have a few Google Wave invites available if anyone out there would like one, just leave me a comment and put make sure you put your correct e-mail address into the DISQUS commenting system.
Wave is pretty slick and if you need to do some online collaboration and don’t mind a fairly open environment then this is the perfect product for you. Wave is NOT a replacement for e-mail, instant messaging, or your online social networks, although it pulls in components from all of those types of communication.
