Google has developed a new open source program called “Google Wave.” wave.google.com Put simply, Google Wave is just like Google Docs for e-mail. http

Thank you
who want wave, pm me!
Okay, if anyone wants an invite to Google Wave, just PM with your gmail after you subscribe to me and I’ll send one to you…
good job kid … made more sense than the other videos.
very nice video kid; creative way of transmitting the idea across
I have plenty of Google Wave invites to give out. Please subscribe to my channel then send me a message with your gmail address and i will invite you. Thanks.
Cool, but can’t facebook do pretty much the same? like, you tag someone to a note and thats it…
Very nice way of explaining, its new and different.

@tibiademon you are a noob
yah I know I use gmail since the day it was launched in beta with invitation only
but IMAP is by default not stored in ur system (at least in gmail), and I don’t think a novice user would know how to change the settings to store the whole message, in fact I would dare to say that a novice user doesn’t even know that their messages get stored with POP3 and not by IMAP (by default).
@MrPilingo
With IMAP, you have the _option_ of not pulling all the messages in their entirety just to have look at them, but you can still pull everything out and store it locally.
There is not a single thing you can do with POP3 that you can’t do with IMAP. Nothing.
By the way, GMail has an offline mode that lets you use the webmail interface without a connection. It does that by storing everything it needs with Gears (to be replaced by pure HTML5 when possible). I’m not a fan, but alas.
any body that needs invited to wave, lemme know
nerd
he is, just a little thingy if u watch ur email from the browser it doesn’t store in ur pc even if u connect via IMAP messages remain in the server not in ur computer.
this kid is going places
@fernandoscolletion part3
Just as you can’t create an @gmail. com email address at yahoo, you also can’t create an @yahoo. com wave address at google.
And if you could, that’d mean every single wave address would be pointing at google, when in reality it’s a system where all the different servers can exchange messages with each other without ever needing to talk to google.
In contrast, every single time you use MSN Messenger, Microsoft gets to know, no matter what “email” you used to sign in.
I want invite przerada[@]gmail[dot]com
@fernandoscolletion part2
With the second, your account name is “username”, and what comes after the “@” identifies which server is that account in.
This is why google can only give account names in their own servers, because they only control theirs!
If you want a wave account at a different domain, then that domain needs to have its own, google-independent wave server, just like what happens with email.
@fernandoscolletion part1
So, you think something like MSN is less controlling because it allows you to sign in with any email?
You couldn’t possibly be more wrong.
In MSN and the like, your account name is “username@domain. com”, while in Wave (and real email) it’s “username”@domain. com.
They may LOOK the same, but the intent is entirely different…
The first treats the whole account name (username@domain. com) as a whole, and stores it in a Single Monolithic Server.
perhaps, but again, since it’s open source just w8 for a while and some other site will launch their version of Wave in case u don’t want to use another google product.
but u can’t question the reason for needing and acc, do u? i hope u don’t…
i have spare invites if you want one go to /watch?v=awF61Tf9Pzk
Very nice.
@coolguyflex
thanks, but I’ve just received the email in which they accepted my request. But still someone may need it
Can you invite me? thanks.
@bambuzz88
i can invite you
a Wave is open source. Google has made it clear that they have no intention of owning the wave. Hotmail, yahoo, AOL. They can all make Wave clients that can interact with the other Wave clients. Kinda like how Gmail users can email users of other email clients. Google is jsut the first Wave being made.
