    I agree Joel! I was there at the keynote, in SF. Google Wave's future reach into personal and collaborative activities will be habit transforming!

    I wonder at the possible custom Extensions that we could develop for our own internal use. What a new world of potential in this space!

  2. Except that Google petitioned the CA supreme court to overrule proposition 8. Google. The corporation Google went to the supreme court and asked it to overturn prop 8. Doesn't that just make you sick? I have a hard time supporting that, don't you?

  3. Forever change. But this is awesome. So many positive things that can be done. Jonathan - Its unfortunate they have chosen to support this but, every time I find a name to take to the temple using their technology - I'll figure the Lord's work continues in spite of these efforts.

  4. As I was watching the demo video the other day I was thinking... "Man, this would be nice if we could use it for church work."

    Joel... make it so!

  5. I was also at the keynote and was extremely impressed by the work Google is doing, especially around standards based technologies like HTML and Javascript. Joel, did you notice this was all running in the browser and built with GWT on top of HTML 5?

    I am really excited about what GWT can do for us here at the Church in developing technologies that will greatly enhance the experience for our users. Go GWT!

  6. Wave is definitely interesting - although I expect that the showcase effect it had on GMail will be much less of a big deal in the long run than the underlying api. Most people have little idea how to handle the email deluge that is occurring and I find nothing in Wave that would change that. If anything with the introducing of IMs and inline/multiple replies it will further slow most people's processing of their inbox
