Anyone got a spare Google Wave invite?

Yeah you mark off when someone *sends* you an invite. Might be best if the sender marks [INVITE GOT].

Darkflame kindly sent me one, am still waiting for Google to send it though. =(

Cheers for updating the list. I wonder if I've fucked myself by applying to Google twice (first months ago, second on launch day when nothing happened) and then being invited by a friend the third time...

Ah, OK, I misunderstood; assumed [INVITE GOT] meant invite received from Google.

In an ideal world, it would show that you really are keen, and therefore deserve to get in... And to win something!

Apparently invitees (sp?) cannot invite others?

Recent invitees do not get to invite others. We will grow from sign-ups and the invite queue. Active users might get invite wave later ...

That Twitter feed looks dodgy, although the tweet it quotes and the Google Wave product manager who tweeted it look authentic.

It's rubbish anyway as WiteWulf and I both got invites from the same person and while he is waving, I'm drowning!

I could, and I was.

Maybe it's a recent change in policy to stop it being taken up too quickly while still creaking around the edges?

I thought that was the whole point of the invite system. Give out a few invites. Friends are invited, friends use the system because, well, they are friends, see how the server copes, release a few more invites.

Slightly off-topic to the invites but related to Google Wave, I was watching the "Serenity" movie on ITV4 yesterday and I noticed that they referred to their communications as "waves". It jumped out at me watching it, where it wouldn't have done previously.

So, the Google Wave development team are secretly browncoats, eh?

Ah, yes, I've checked the Wikipedia entry - the name is inspired by Firefly and they apparently dropped references into the demo which I failed to spot at the time.

Shiny!

[Darkflame]

Yes, its firefly all over the place.
Even the preview version quotes it during a crash.

Oh well, that's this project doomed to fail
