I appear to have had an extra allocation of invites if anyone would like a play in Google Wave.

Its a great collaborative tool and there are some interesting uses of it already out there.

What is a wave?

A wave is equal parts conversation and document. People can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.

A wave is shared. Any participant can reply anywhere in the message, edit the content and add participants at any point in the process. Then playback lets anyone rewind the wave to see who said what and when.

A wave is live. With live transmission as you type, participants on a wave can have faster conversations, see edits and interact with extensions in real-time.

If you want invites could you pm your email addresses.

Thanks to the ones already sent and a DS public wave is being set up!

There is a delay in processing the nominations at present but it is worth the wait.

Although still in Preview there are daily upgrades.

Imagine something halfway between chat (msn messenger etc) and a word processor you can all edit at once.

Handy for some stuff, infuriating the rest of the time!

I'm hoping for an invite sometime soon so I can use it at work.
