Google Surfs New Wave of Web Communication by Richard Martin, VoN (May 28)
Google is developing a new platform called Wave "that unites various forms of real-time and persistent communications with many of the rich interactive features of social networking sites in a single place, allowing for both business and personal relationships that need not be scattered across different sites and different media."
"Wave is essentially a Web application that creates a shared online desktop where users can exchange real-time messages, share and edit text documents, images, and graphics, incorporate online Widgets, and keep track of ongoing projects and conversations. The technology is being released to developers immediately and will be open to the public later this year."
