Google Wave has a Public Timeline, like Twitter

 

Google Wave Public TimelineListen, this is a pretty cool thing. Google Wave also has a public timeline, like twitter. It shows all wave created and updated if they are marked “public”, and this happens real-time. You can open these waves and join the conversation.  To access it, all you need to do is, type “with:public” without quotes, in to the search bar.

The Future of 4G, Twitter and Google Wave

Like any new technological development, 4G is a lot closer than you think. Tests are already underway and some battle lines are being drawn with regards to how the market for these services will emerge. This development is on track to coincide with the equally rapid development of real time systems like Twitter and Google Wave. What is likely to emerge are services that create instantaneous streams to deliver and share not just text and hyperlinks, but video, audio, whiteboarding and files. This will be:
a) Faster
b) From a static or mobile device
c) With more reliable synchronization via the cloud
d) Easily archivable and searchable

Even more exciting is the continued evolution in hardware and always on devices. Taking the iPhone as an example, it’s gyroscope has redefined gaming and sent the experience into a much more physical dimension. The Wii is another case, even being used as part of physical therapy regimens.

Twitter vs Google Wave

Tweet or Wave?

Where Wave stands out:

  1. Open Sourced - Developers will add to it and mutate it for their needs. Applications will stretch across blogs even more seamlessly and with an ever more real-time comprehensiveness. This means a wide variety of live running threads for any area of interest.
  2. Made by the people who made Google maps - Indicates Google wave as a service/embedded infrastructure but burdened by the monetization question.
  3. Extensive API Google encourages use, hacking and modification. Because it is open source, Google does not have to police it’s use, like Twitter does.
  4. Unlike Twitter and it’s fail whale Google wave has the engineering, server and tech support resources to handle heavy use, deal with abuse and because of this, will likely have less strict restrictions on it’s API use.

Google Wave Questions and Answers

Google Wave PreviewAfter whinging loudly about not having access to the Google Wave preview, Santa GOOG dropped an invite off in my inbox last night. Sadly I have no invites to give you, but I want to share the love how I can. Last night I held a Wave Q&A on Twitter, where folks asked anything they wanted to know about the app and I did my best to answer. I’m no Wave expert, but now that I’ve got my dirty little paws on it I had some insights and screenshots to share. The question and answer transcript is here, plus those images.
