Google Wave
Introduction to Google Wave:
Google has just laucnched a new WAVE in the Social Media World and it is named "GOOGLE WAVE". Google wave is unique in the sense that it is "both a conversation and document"
- People can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.
- A wave is shareable. Any participant can reply anywhere in the message, edit the content and add participants
- A wave is live. With live transmission as you type, participants on a wave can have faster conversations, see edits and interact with extensions in real-time.
GOOGLE WAVE AS COMPARED TO OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA:
Although Google Wave is not open for public yet but after a preview at the features just intoduced by Google I think GoogleWave is much more better, interactive, fun and less-hectic than some of today's top social media tools.
I think Google Wave will be better then Twiter , since it will provide live interaction without the need of "another login" and at the same time I think Google Wave will provide a better collaboration among friends and peers than Facebook or Myspace, by allowing rich media collaboration with friends like commenting,editing etc. for various stuff you post. And one important feature is "You can also use "playback" to rewind the wave and see how it evolved." I believe it too be the most exciting and thrilling part !
I mean no offense for Twitter, Facebook or Myspace, I use them and appriciate their features, but there is always a need to combine deifferent features at one place and Google Wavepromises to provide such enviornment. I am excited about it, what's your thought ?
I have created two videos and an article on technorati to cover more details, check them out:
