Anyone got a spare Google Wave invite?

Well I still didn't get mine, I wonder if Limb sent it off into limb-o .

So I'd still be obliged if somebody'd bung me one .

Invite sent.

cheers, got it last night and had a quick look before bed .

From what I've seen so far it looks like it's more suited to smallish groups wishing to communicate and collaborate about a specific area of interest rather than as a large scale "enhanced chat/email" style thing. I can see it being useful in the areas I thought it might be - for example when I get going banging out the iPhone games I'd like to solicit contributions from people who might be interested in putting stuff in the game, and for that kind of thing it'd likely be good. Also for having some kind of private communication with testers that's more immediate than posting back and forth on a forum.

I shall have a further play with it .

If anyone is still inviteless, I got some invites to give. PM, nicely.

Are people still using this or have a lot of people given up on it due to the slowness and things? I've noticed that the number of new blips in my inbox has reduced a LOT over the last week or so.

I have a few invites. PM me your email address. First come, first served.

Can someone add me to the YY Wave?

This is not the way to use Wave, and is why it feels so slow

when I get going banging out the iPhone games I'd like to solicit contributions from people who might be interested in putting stuff in the game, and for that kind of thing it'd likely be good. Also for having some kind of private communication with testers that's more immediate than posting back and forth on a forum.

This is the first real-world use that sounds useful, rather than contrived.

I now have 18 invites and people seem to have stopped wanting them, either that or everyone who was interested has an invite now (or has been put off by the horror stories of it's stability and speed).

[teamonkey]

There's a way of linking waves to google groups, so you can only see a wave if you're a member of a group. A much better way of doing things but I have no idea how you'd set it up.

[Darkflame]

Not yet.
There has been talk of being able to create contact groups for a more proper managing of read/write permissions for waves.
(which is badly needed at the moment, imho)

[teamonkey]

Aye, it works now. I'm reading a wave that uses that system.

[EDIT]
Oh, it's really easy to set it up: http://www.masteringwave.com/2009/11/us ... ogle-wave/

Create a google group, then add the group to the wave as if it were a regular user. Then anyone who's a member of the group can find the wave.

I wouldn't mind an invite if anyone has a spare?

[Thoughtcat]

Chunk, have you got one yet? If not PM me your email address.

I also have a few spare invites still, so if anyone still wants one, likewise please PM me.

[The Caffeine Kid]

Didn't see this message til just now. Oops.

Are you sorted yet Chunk?
