If you’re like me and don’t have your Google wave invite (please send me one!) just yet, then this might be the closest thing you have to understanding how it actually works and what you might use it for! Google wave is such an advanced communication tool, that it’s actually defined as a new communication medium. So the catch is, this video from Epipheo Studios, only aims to visualize about 3.5% of what Google Wave actually can do! And I’m sure that’s a stab in the dark too!

I watched the hour (or so) presentation and can tell you that this is a pretty good summary!

I think this guy nailed it. Give the man a invite. I also watched the full key note. he left out all the forking and hiding of conversations. the ability to hide typing until you hit enter. witch you can see are all sub points of this guys top level overview.
great job.
P.S. As a creative director i can’t wait to get my on a invite. I want to try to replace all the other apps I use on a day to day bases for my crew.

Wow, if the 3.5% that is shown is all the Google wave can do, then I can hardly wait to sink my teeth into this. It looks great.

Can’t agree more. I’ll be implementing this into my team also

Wow this looks fab. Great vid!

Great summary, thank you!
As a visualization guy I appreciate the amount of work it took to convert the “3.5%” to something that we can all understand.
Great job.

Google needs to use this as the official way to communicate Google Wave; minus the “please let me in on the Beta program” stuff.
Nice work, Aden! If you don’t get chosen as a beta tester, I am not sure who would.

I applied for a invitation as soon as I heard of google wave.
I cannot wait for this to get released.

Thank you very much for this post and the video, Aden. I’ve used Backpackit.com from 37signals for years, to facilitate many of the communications functions described in the video. Looking forward to surfing out the new Wave as well….

Man! That was a very good summary. Till 5 minutes back I was clueless about Google Wave but now I think I know what to expect from it. And yes… you absolutely deserve an invite.
