  • wave will be reborn!!!!

  • Someone clarify what Google Wave was supposed to be used for. Was it supposed to be trying to compete with other social networks? I understand Google+ is supposed to be kind of simultaneously integrating multiple Google features, while kind of "competing" with Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Foursquare, (MySpeace?) etc.. What did they want Wave to be?

  • I still have my google wave account haha. That and Google+

  • that went well.....

  • I don't undestand, I think Google Wave's concept WAY better than Twitter's, and yet Twitter is EXTREMELY popular and Wave is practically dead. I really wish Wave had been as a worldwide phenomenon as it was announced. I'd enjoy using it...

  • aa cant seem to find a guy who isnt a coward

  • Hey remember when everyone thought Google Wave was going to replace Twitter? ahahahaha, those were the days.

  • Greg did a great job speaking at the NASA Ames Research Center. I actually started using Google Wave after his presentation!

  • HAHA do not drink 1 second before this video starts

  • That's a lousy lab worker.

  • @almazeus Er...I already got an invitation, and you need those as without them Google Wave will be "Access Denied". Are you confusing them with Nominations?

  • me too

  • I like his lab coat too!

  • I like his lab coat.

  • I agree!

  • He's really funny!

  • @palz2015 you have to view this video inside Wave.

  • lol, hes pointing to nothing :P

  • @cowlord14 Thanks already got an account, but have no idea how to use it. Is not compatible with msn messenger or even twitter it's like a mysterious MAC-fan thingy. And when I get there there is not even a link to gmail or other place. It's like hanging there. By the way I'm tired of seen people watching their phones.

  • @capitanqueso That is not google waves fault. I had a bit of trouble getting used to it but its pretty intuitive after a little while. All that stuff you said works, plus it is still in beta so... don't expect it to be perfect

  • aahwhy there is no chat on you tube.. Btw anyone up for some cam chat^^

  • @JosiahRAndersonn Um...why would someone want to chat with someone they have never met before whilst showing ones face along with a background that might elude to their location? Sounds creepy to me. *But I don't judge!* If that's what people like, then I don't really care.

  • @Luiji99 I see how this will soon replace the traditional email. Let's say that you have a class group project... this would be a way more efficient communication tool than conventional emails and folders... You would also have to be organized, otherwise...

  • @luke5019 Personally I think it will never replace email for simple messages, such as YouTube notifications and stuff, but it will probably replace stuff where a file is sent for people to view. For example, if people submit a graphic to their friends so they can easily comment.

  • He says he's trying to enlist us, but it's taking forever to get my invitation! :P

  • @Luiji99 Thats strange, took me les than 12 hours to get my invite. Just say your willing to help

  • @Psil0X I got my invite three days after, and I said "yes" to bug reports and surveys and stuff. They have a lot on their plate and more and more people are asking for invites, so it's understandable that they don't get to some right away.

  • @Luiji99 Im on wave :D

  • XD He looks pretty smart when u watch this from youtube.. eh?

  • @superkoolnerd Yep.

  • I loved the video intro.. I was like 'whoa he is pointing at the actual panels' bahaha

  • What's he talking about? he's pointing a black area all around him, I use Opera and chrome but I guess adobe flash player screw this up.

  • this video is embedded in the google wave preview. its still in testing so if your just watching this on youtube then yeah you wont see anything

  • The way he was pointing to area of the screen and the interface while it was playing was so crazy it blew my mind!

  • I have google wave

  • Haha, I just accepted my invitation to Wave and I thought this video was a well crafted Intro Vid.

  • ahmy cam is running abd i am really bored with all that stuff

  • FUCK THE POLICE

  • Very Cool, I´m in the wave... : ^ ]

  • could you invite me please?

  • i could invite u all butttttttttt idk if i should :P

  • can anybody plz invite me...

  • Oh hi!! xD

  • yea this scientist doesnt attract my attention...

  • You know, if you want need to use it, you should not use a scientist to explain things, but real people, giving examples.

    "Hi, I'm Lisa, and I wanna go shopping with my friends, so I Waved them a yes / no pool and a map." and so on.

  • Can't agree, Wave is still in buggy beta (keeps crashing sometimes) so so it's mostly used by people interested in this technology.

  • all i hear is wave wave wave ride the wave man

  • I have a Google Wave account, but i never got the intro message.

  • That's great and all, but when do we sign up for our neural implants?

  • I love this vid :D It was so funny when he "told me" - you can click on new wave button... but DON'T DO IT because if click on it I'm gonna go :D:D:D man I laughed so hard :D:D

  • Anybody want an invitation I got 8 left

  • he sounds very Christopher Walken when he says "I'm totally out of time."

    Maybe it just me...

  • It's okay, but they should put up a much more cohesive video about HOW to use it, FEATURES and BENEFITS and give comparative information re all the other social websites now so prolific

  • This wil be big

  • Hey Greg! I did the survey, I submitted the CONTACT ME to be contacted and I have not even had a confirmation and thank you email for having done the survey!! Are you guys super bogged or is this a bad misstep? I would like a better forum to discuss gwave than these youtube boxes!!

  • Whoever ones a invite message me?? :: P

  • *Waves Hello*

  • @ frvfilms, click on what you want to delete, and click on the ... and push delete

  • This vid is awesome, I almost clicked on new wave :O

  • X D

  • I think if more people had it, you would like it.

    Its really meant for businesses.

  • USELESS. Had an account for weeks and haven't logged in after initially activating it.

    None of my friends I sent invites to use it either.

  • I got my Google Wave invite!! weeeeeeeeee!

  • Giving people Wave invitation but I need you to sub me

  • this is fuckin retarded i have had a google wave account for 2 weeks never even use this crap

  • so u cant remove dr wave from wave box that means that some one is monitoring u all the time?

  • Make it simple for me man. I am a simple man. First of all a Search box and..."thanks for the video but what do I do now" link"

  • Ok, so, you want feedback! BUT where does I puts the feeds back too?

  • wish i have invitation

  • ill give u one.

  • nic infotrmative one...thankx......tis is a super product......its gonna rock..

  • pongan subtitulos por favor!

  • This was actually a really helpful/good video... thanks!

  • in spanis pleace

  • This is going to be awesome!

    just got my invitation and I can't wait until everyone is using this!

    p.s. December 1st = first day of snow!(this year for me)

  • I love google wave, just started using it and its better than i expected!

    The intro is funny, and even funnier when its not embedded into Wave :P

  • I find this just a little hard to use. well that's probably because I'm so used to Facebook.

  • I think the intro is funny. X3

  • I don't understand what he say at 1:33 "but don't do it...." and i not understand what he say. Anoyne can help?

  • or he's gonna go...

  • Thank you! Now has a sense :D

  • hes assuming ur veiwing this video embeded in a wave, thats wat they made it for

  • @acidvertigo If you are watching this from google wave, and you click on a new wave, the current wave you are viewing will disappear. That video is embeded onto the wave so when the wave disapears, so will the vid with him in it. Once again, he's assuming you are watching this from inside google wave.

  • cause if you press "New Wave", the panel in which the video is being played is replaced, thus terminating the video

  • Just got my invite :D on my birthday also. Thanks Google for the gift LOL

  • hey guys anybody who saw my comment about the google wave invites? im not gonna give out anymore now ive already sent them, so dont message me for more invites

  • Woot, got an invitation; thanks Google! :D

  • got an invitation. cool. now what happens? xD

  • Just got my invitation today.

    Thanks a bunch,Google!

  • Same here! Thanks, Doctor Wave! (He invited me :D)

    W00T

  • this man talks like Quentin Tarintino

  • i disagree. i don't think this guy has any form of mental retardation at all, especially cerebral palsy.

  • I got 8 invites today I have no idea how to use wave.

  • Where is the links you are talking about?

    LOL

  • it only makes sense if you have Wave open

  • I was kidding :)

  • he thinking in the wave page because this video in the box with title 'welcome wave'

  • ...invite 8 of your friends to join as well.. and then your network will grow.

    (It's not like FB, because you can not share doc/photos/videos with several in realtime nor 'brainstorm' and edit a wave...) (at least, that's what i understood from the wave start video)

  • some hours ago, I received an invitation from google wave :)

    And my life has changed again as when I got my invitation to gmail.!!!!!!!!

    Thanks St. Google.

  • And I have an invite today. Sweet. =)

  • just got my invite THANK U GOOGLE

  • I just got my invitation today and saw this video on the wave they send you. Wow, this is gonna be exciting :D

  • They're just trying to compete with Facebook. I just started trying out the Wave, can't do much when your friends are not on it. We'll see in the future how it is.

  • is bullshit wait for an a invitation i wont try this shit until all my friends had one

  • Am I the only one who doesn't understand Google Wave at all? Haha.

  • i just got my invitation!! Love you google :D!!!

  • Excelente toda la idea del Google Wave! Pero necesitamos más información, si bien el video ayuda mucho a entender cada botón sería de mucha ayuda tenerlo también EN ESPAÑOL!!!

    PREGUNTAS:

    Ya vi cómo puedo twittear desde google wave, qué otras aplicaciones se pueden usar?

    Todos los contactos que invite deben tener necesariamente cuenta en gmail?

    Qué pasa con mi bandeja de correo del gmail? los puedo ver desde el google wave???!!!

    Help!!!

  • He's not explaining this very well. I'm sure there's a much more direct way to show us what Google Wave is.

  • If you log on and watch this video on Google Wave it'll make more sense. This video was made for those who already have GW accounts.

  • It must be me then. I just got an account yesterday. Maybe I am the one person that does't get it. Who knows.

  • @Anomaly100

    I thought he did I fine job. A collection of blips, which are messages, maps, videos, etc. that anyone in the wave can add to or edit. Brilliant!

  • I'm glad his video was positive for you, however, It was not helpful for me. I would prefer someone to try not to be a comedian & just explain it in plain English. We aren't all computer geniuses. That's why we didn't invent the social websites ourselves. I have not used Wave once since I received the invitation a week ago. I signed on, I looked, I tried, I left.

  • @GrahamNificent: I did try this yesterday. I didn't spend a lot of time on it, but got the idea. It's ok when I found some people on it that have my same interests, but still, finding my way around is not made easy there. I'll get used to it though. I like your username by the way. Very funny!

  • really  fantastic

  • penis!

  • @freddytuber Who needs internet? It's just some crazy thing those damn nerds came up with. Cell phones? Gah, what will those kids think of next? Computers? Psh, I can do math with an abacus and type with a type-writer, why do I need a damn computer?

    Also, this isn't necessarily Twitter. Twitter is microblogging, which is also visible to the whole world. This is simply e-mail reinvented. And, thanks to the plethora of features this thing has, you can use it for docsharing, and a whole lot more.

  • go kill yourself, what is life for anyway...

  • Learning

  • What a positive asset you are on YouTube.

  • @freddytuber Who said anything about tweeting? It's email! Do you use email? Then you'll probably end up using it. Just read your comment again in two years when this thing takes over the world.

  • It's fine when one pays attention. It's the first chapter, so, contribute instead those of you with dumb comments and trouble with English

  • Pardon me, but your remark about people that have "trouble with English" is in itself, an ignorant statement. I'll pretend you didn't mean that. Maybe you're just having "trouble with English".

  • I have no concept of what you're talking about, but judging from your lack of cohesiveness I'm thinking whatever i said about your English is pretty much right on.

  • You have no concept of what I'm talking about & you insult my English?! Now, I understand. You're attempting comedy. If you don't know what I'm typing about, look up to the comment you made about people that don't speak English well. It wasn't toward me, idiot. I just don't appreciate how you speak to others. It's called, respect.

  • Chill out, take a pill...and please mind your own business. It could help with your post lobotomy condition. And I suggest you stay away from criticizing anybody's English unless you'd have picked up on the bone I left you to chew on. Oh, and give your friend osama bama my best wishes for failure. And you're certainly unqualified to try to impale Limbaugh OR have fun at Palin's expense. You can't afford it. And yes, I am a comedian and a real U.S. citizen. Good luck with that.

  • "Osama bama?" I don't know anyone by that name. What does, Google Wave have to do with politics? I knew it the second I saw your anti-immigrant moment, that you were a Limbaugh groupie. That's cool, but don't lecture me about my mind when yours is gone. If you don't like Progressives & want to be an idiot, I'm on several sites where I get hate mail from racists & Palinites, but this, is not about politics. Your name is apropos.

  • Take a nap and wake up awake for a change. There is no such thing as "progressives", you're all liberals aka liverals as in having no such organ. Your English gives you away, my friend. And you don't make one single pimple on Rush's butt but no, I'm no groupie of any kind. I create groups, I don't follow them. I have my own mind, which is more than I can clearly see about you. Don't go away mad, just go away; and while you're away, learn to type English. Just kidding.

  • I do speak English & it happened to be my major in college. Me thinks thou doth protest too much. Your name speaks volumes. Kindly remove yourself from my comments & move along. This is not a political forum. You can find me on any site & we'll talk about your political leanings there, but here, it's redundant & self defeating.

  • I appreciate, you trying to be funny, and your effort to make a "friendly" explication, but we're not retarded, all that you said it quite obvious.

    Other than that, i'm really excited about google wave, people start to "know what to do with it" (COMUNICATE), it's got a lot of potential.

  • Hire NPH.

  • NO clue what to do with it.

  • i have no clue what to do with this program. The Video helped me get from 0 to 0

  • Actually this video is only meant for ppl to see it inside an actual wave...that's why it kinda looks lame on youtube...otherwise, wave is pretty awesome!!

  • my friend and i just post texts back and forth, but i dont see the usefulness of it. im sure its over my head.

  • well the thing is, wave is brand new in so many different ways...even if you're just posting text back and forth, it transmits LIVE, so you dont spend time waiting with a lame "xxx is typing"

    Also, it is faster because unlike an email, it doesn't really "go" anywhere...its on the same server.

    Other than that, it also has nifty features like whiteboards, video embedding, drag-and-drop pix etc.

    Its really cool!

  • is there one i can load that a lot of people are working on as a group? almost like a wikipedia type conglomeration? strangers working on something?

    me and my dead beat friends go to work and come home, we dont work on much together, but i can get behind something where strangers are building something for the common good.

  • @eatmealiveplease Assuming you saw this video inside a Wave account, find the wave that has this video and scroll down, there's lots of helpful links with more info on what a wave is and how to use it.

  • Lol @ the CC [clatter, shatter]

  • east or west google wave is the best

  • figo!

  • This is the 101 post.

    Just 831,000 views to the intro of Wave???

  • blow me

  • Great! It´s the 100. Post ;)

    We love Google ;)

  • Good job on this video. Creative and even funny, nerdy humor, but funny...

  • huh I got it

  • wave.google(.)com/help/wave/dr wave.html

    its this same vid embedded but ull see the screen that he's talking about

    GMFMusic

  • you freaking noob, this video is meant for people who actually get INVITED to Wave and then get to use it. Read the description before spazzing out like a dumbass.

  • u actually fail n00b :P

  • ha ha it was posted in the wave ... that is why

  • Comment removed

  • FAIL.

  • CAN'T BELIEVE HOW FREAKIN BAD ASS GOOGLE WAVE IS!!! It is awesome. lightweight. responds beautifully. can't wait to see more improvements. more importantly I can't wait to see Google Chome OS. CHANGING THE WAY WE COMPUTE!!!!! FOR THE GREATER GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • unfortunetly for the first impression it failed, i got firefox 3.5.5, when i started the session, it said that i'm not using Chrome or Safari 4 or Firefox 3.5 or higher... it failed in the first run :/

  • its not what it DOES its what it will DO

  • it's free

  • Complaining about technology is normal in old ppl, so i guess you are around 65 - 70 coz old ppl complain always about young, young ideas, young life, like their life was the best and the future is crap, sorry to tell you that, but i hope ur generation learns that this one is better than watching ur black/white tv, and just for the record,if you are young,you are just lame and you don't know what is the world of technology,i will tell you an advice(if u r young)let the good things happen you emo

  • @Elqno actually im 29 and old in some respects, but contrary to your postulations i see the future. while you continue to gawk at obvious crap like google wave considering it innovation instead of random convergence i see it as the gimmick that it is. technology itself is eons backwards and continually stifled, you continue to be impressed with all this mainstream crap like it's revolutionary. chrome os is just such another case. continue praising google im sure they'll do something worthwhile s

  • Its not the tech or the software mate. More like the 'idea'.

    Its a good idea. Its being shared out free to see where it goes.

  • @JustJobeMY yes, and it's been done before. google only tries to tie itself in all your activities because your data is worth much more than any revenue they can generate from paid services.. so plz stop with the reverence, google is just another bloated company grabbing at 'ideas'

  • Reverence? keke :)

    Ive made comments about most companies against their favor too, google included, when i feel something is shitty.

    Credit where its due.

    I consider what services are offered vs what i have to give up for their services, and if i feel the deal is fair, i sign up.

    About data privacy? other than the demographic marketing feedback, i'm guessing most of my info is already available somewhere if someone really cared to dig for it.

    Don't sign up if it worries u mate ; )

    Cheers!

  • Got invited! So happy!

  • This looks Boring, I dont get it, whats the point? Is it a copy of Failbook.....I mean Facebook?

    This is confusing I dont think I'm gunna use it often.....

  • @moviesunrated thank you for using your brain

  • it's to do stuff all online, the next step of google it's to do ur computer just like a browser, that means all ur HDD content should be in servers and you can access it and that so on, in this waves you can do a lot of stuff that is the why you don't understand it, it's just too many things, the one that is cool it's like doing live chatting,make bots,put bots,damn sorry it's too much,it's like a mini operating system,with a lot of tools/programs,just read and you will get an idea ;)

  • @Elqno chrome is more gimmicks, $300-$400 will never fly with stuff like tegra processors making conventional netbooks obsolete

  • this video really doesnt work on youtube! :)

  • got my inviite just today ,,,,thanks,,,,

  • Got my invite! YAY, now what does it do?

  • Thanks Google I'll test and send feedback religiously. =D
