This puts Microsoft Exchange 2010 about 7 years behind already!

It's getting to the point that soon we will be fighting productivity with everyone's collaboration/[censored] sessions LOL! This will make lawyers really crazy during the process of electronic discovery. The rate of progression in communication formats is simply unreal.

If anyone has a spare 1hr 20min, here's Google's presentation.

They start to explain more features here, where a 3rd person is added to a 2 person basic email conversation.

I just received my Google Wave invite ... haven't had a chance to mess about yet.

Too cluttered. I wouldn't call it progress. Don't expect the common folks or 'masses' jumping ship from simple email or a corded phone.... We're lucky if we can make them remember their email address or password.

Well, gotta run to work. Will spend the next 10 hrs not being productive trying to figure out how to be productive in geewhiz age of useless software that most companies are burdened with. Can't get anything done because we're trying to hard to figure out how not to.

It's been 15 months since TNS posted this link about Google Wave, anyone started to use or know of anyone using it?

Here's the answer: Wave Goodbye to Wave

Maybe it was just ahead of its time. Or maybe there were just too many features to ever allow it to be defined properly, but Google is saying today that they are going to stop any further development of Google Wave.
