    I've played around with wave a bit and I have to say I'm not particularly impressed. So far I haven't come up with a use case for it. *shrug*

    +1 to this. Looks promising, but the way some talk about it smacks of the Emperor's New Clothes to me.

    Chaps,

    gwave is still in beta testing. Google have proven that they can write excellent software. I'm sure gwave will be very useful. Imagine it in a corporate scenario - there are some truly interesting possibilities.

    As I said, it looks promising. I was commenting more on the hype surrounding it than the software itself.

    Incidentally, so was I But you certainly have a point. That's the problem with public beta (or, rather, alpha) testing - some people go way overboard, especially if they are not programmers.
