Google Wave, the latest talk of the town in World Wide Web has generated a massive interest among developers by announcing to go open source with the code and provide the API’s to develop third party applications based and supported with Google Wave itself.
This is what I was kind of waiting for.
This morning when I logged into my Gmail account I was not so surprised to see an email from google notifying me that I just got an invitation for the latest sensation in the world wide web, everyone is talking about “”.
Initially released only to developers, a “preview release” of Google Wave was extended to nearly 1 million users beginning September 30, 2009, with the initial 100,000 users each allowed to invite from twenty to thirty additional users.
I still am in the process of discovering this whole new thing my way but as far as the definition goes, Wikiepedia surely has an answer.
Google Wave is “a personal communication and collaboration tool” announced by Google at the Google I/O conference on May 27, 2009.It is a web-based service, computing platform, and communications protocol designed to merge e-mail, instant messaging, wikis, and social networking.It has a strong collaborative and real-time focus supported by extensions that can provide, for example, spelling/grammar checking, automated translation among 40 languages,and numerous other extensions.
Sounds game, huh. And it’s really amazing to see google is already planning to go Open Source with Wave already. Which means, one it is launched fully developers can easily use the Google Source code to easily develop their own applications based on the wave architecture. And not to forget, Google has started building APIs already for the same to open doors for a many to try something on their own way with this new WAVE.
