In a simple words Google wave is a real-time communication platform. It’s a hybrid of email, instant messaging, web chat, social networking, micro bloging, file share all build into one interface.
Features of wave :
You can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.
Any participant can reply anywhere in the message, edit the content and add participants at any point in the process (contextual suggestions and spelling correction).
It supports the drop and drag attachments from desktop and thus enable the real-time file sharing to anyone in the conversation.
It’s also embeddable, so you can embed Google Wave conversations on any blog.
This could very well turn into a project management tool with all concerns sharing the progress realtime.
It’s also an open-source project with a lot of API integrations. So the possibilities of growth and integration with various web products are unimaginable.
