    Ride It: Google Wave


    Google Wave Demo at I/O 2009

    During this year's I/O convention, Google demonstrated the developer's versions of the Google Wave. This boasts to be a powerful open-source web based communication and collaboration tool. It allows users to communicate in real-time and share photos, videos, maps and more. Participants can reply to any part of conversations and begin from any part of an email thread. People can be added to the thread at any moment and see the entire conversation in the manner in which it unfolded. It works across browsers and mobile devices, can be embedded into blogs, edited, shared and more.

    The innovations demonstrated in this video are quite impressive such as context aware spell checker, real-time typing view and drag and drop photo sharing. Viewers of the demo all received accounts to help with the development of the program. There are also game, rsvp gadgets, and many more options available for this api, all from the view of one browser window.
    Developed by the people who brought us Google Maps, it is expected to be released later this year.
