Sounds like a 2D version of Croquet and Open Cobalt.

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

For me this will be the key to Wave's success or failure. If other providers do start up it will avoid vendor lock-in and potentially lead to much higher adoption. Companies (and individuals) which wouldn't consider outsourcing their communication to Google for all sorts of reasons would be much more likely to get on board if they can have the same functionality and global interoperability while still retaining control of their data.
Announcement with 1.5 hour video explaining/describing Google Wave which will be released sometime in 2009. It's hard to describe this but it might be thought of as an evolution in email to embrace the more social/collaborative aspects of web 2.0. It may have application in education and might be useful in one or more of my courses.

Goes well with Social Shaping (and Social Construction) of Technology. The "revolution" didn't happen simply because of IP.

Google Wave has huge potential in teaching and learning. Will be worth our time to really understand it.

This post is very important to understand the vision behing Google Wave. We are not talking about a new product, we are talking about a bet for a methapor that would match the new paradigm of work.
Jez Cope on 2009-06-09
That's a really good way of looking at it. I wonder how long Google expects to wait before the bet pays off.
Max Ugaz on 2009-05-31
This is the key questions to be asked in a moment like this one: we have learned since the comercial internet appeared that we need a new paradigm to work, so we also need a new methapor borned out of the analog world.
Alexandre Enkerli on 2009-06-03
Agreed. It's all about integration. And seeing your annotation on this blogpost, right after watching the demo, makes me think about the connections between Diigo and GW. Diigo works (almost) anywhere. GW will require API support. But, as we saw in the Bloggy demo, there's an "annotated Web" dimension to GW.

Wave has the potential to either kill off many other services, like Diigo, or incorporate them and take them to the next level. I strongly hope it's the latter, and the proliferation of Twitter-based services suggests there's a strong developer community out there who could take on this task.

Precisely the new paradigm of work! no more individuals working alone with their muscles, now we work with our minds, helping each other in trying to get new and better ideas, at the speed of light, with people around the world, in a turbulent environment where only with the company of other we can accomplish our goals and make our vision possible.

I think all this "new paradigm" talk is a hoax. It is still the same as it ever was, just on a new platform. What all this does is diffusing the boundaries between the private- and the work-sphere. We write private mails while we should work and we work while we should spend time with our families.

Notable feature that Google includes for documents, the versions are melted in time to become the evolution of the document. Nos the document lives.
The ultimate mash up tool. Collaborative web desktop, combining rich formatted text, photos, videos, chat and email where you can surf and create in your browser together

In Google Wave you create a wave and add people to it. Everyone on your wave can use richly formatted text, photos, gadgets, and even feeds from other sources on the web. They can insert a reply or edit the wave directly. It's concurrent rich-text editing, where you see on your screen nearly instantly what your fellow collaborators are typing in your wave. That means Google Wave is just as well suited for quick messages as for persistent content — it allows for both collaboration and communication. You can also use "playback" to rewind the wave and see how it evolved.
