Google Wave is apparently the next greatest thing for PCs but I still don't quite understand what the hell I should be excited about.
"It is a web-based service, computing platform, and communications protocol designed to merge e-mail, instant messaging, wiki, and social networking.[3] It has a strong collaborative and real-time[4] focus supported by extensions that can provide, for example, robust spelling/grammar checking, automated translation between 40 languages,[2] and numerous other extensions."
So instead of having IM (which I don't use) running as a different program as my email and facebook(that I don't use) it will all be on the same web page? Ok so it is all right in front of me? Big deal. The excitement I am seeing for tech nerds and blogger makes me think they are on googles payroll or google isn't doing a good enough job letting me know why this is great.
I guess the names is a reference to Firefly which is cool.
