Anyone got a spare Google Wave invite?

[The Caffeine Kid]

Dang I missed the invite train!

[RiK]

If anyone's still got an invite going I wouldn't mind one. Ta.

[andy_h]

Please add me to the list of Google wave beggers

How about a list, add your names to the bottom people :

1. WiteWulf
2. disciple
3. Thoughtcat
4. Darkflame
5. Ian_Eb
6. gravy
7. piku
8. defsdoor
9. RiK
10. andy_h

10 people so far, basically with just 2 Google invites we're all sorted.

[WiteWulf]

Is that your list of people wanting invites or people you're expecting to see in the system?

Leo's already sent me an invite (although I'm still waiting for it to come out of Google) so take me off the list if it's for ppl wanting invites, ta.

[disciple]

Yeah the plan was a list of people waiting invites, I'm just trying to order what we've already done in this thread.

I just thought it was a bit crap that folks had already stuck their names down on a list, then it became first to pm.

I've been reading up on this google wave idea, it seems really interesting and it would really benefit me and a friend of mine since we've be writing a story together for a long time now but of course, passing a word doc over and over gets tedious as well as the copious amount of spelling and grammar checking that we both have to go through (incidentally it's me correcting his grammar all the time as he hardly ever paragraphs or doesn't paragraph in the correct place).

So, as the pratice seems to have been established, please include me in the invite list. Thanks guys, I would really appreciate it if there is a a spare invite going.

This thread with it's lists would work a lot better as a collaborative Google Wave, but if it was one then I suspect the list would be very short.

[WiteWulf]

Ok, I'm on wave now

Did you get one of the initial 100,000 invites from Google or did someone else invite you?

[limb_clock]

I'm really hoping that they'll add some sort of live drawing functionality, as it would really help collaborating with animators.

But when the people i sent invites to get there, it would be nice to collaborate on making a game or something tangible.

[Wibble]

Oh, that's terrible. Google are well milking it

[Darkflame]

No, its still quite unstable actually. I can understand this being limited.
Its no gmail.

I'm really hoping that they'll add some sort of live drawing functionality, as it would really help collaborating with animators.

There is a widget for that already I think.
Theres also a collaborative flowchart system.

Frankly, I think wave as a generic collaborative live data platform might turn out to be its main use.

my google wave address is limbster@googlewave.com ADD ME.

[disciple]

Oh fer Christ's sake, what's the fucking point.

Everyone's gone to the trouble of making a list, and so people decide instead, in their wisdom, to just random them off to to whoever happens to be online at the time. Not only that but they end up going to people who wanted invites *so badly* that they didn't even bother sticking their names down on the list.

[Darkflame]

Once Ive got established who I need to send them too, I'll send them to whos on top of the list.
But I'll probably only have 3 spare (I think).

my wave account is;
