    Hallelujah! The cloudy sky has opened up, sun shines through. Choirs are singing and angels can be seen in the distance.
  • amitabh · 2 months ago
    Share the feeling ? sharma.amitabh [at] gmail.com :P Thanks lol
  • joebrooks · 2 months ago
    I'm holding this comment hostage until I get an invite.

    *chains self to post*
  • Noit Guys · 2 months ago
    I wrote a serious kiss ass email early on so I hope I'm lucky enough to get one. I've got my fingers crossed. Good luck everyone. I feel Like Charlie opening up my bar of chocolate with the hopes of the golden ticket.lol.
  • Flowsion Shekar · 2 months ago
    Someone invite me and win a cookie. :3
  • fla030 · 2 months ago
    I hope it opens quicker for everyone then it did for gmail. Gmail was on a invite system it seemed for a few years. Google wave will change the internet for the better.

  • Fajar · 2 months ago
    wow that was fast!
  • kevinarth · 2 months ago
    Gabriel, I don't think the wavesandbox.com domain is able to interact with the preview domain googlewave.com. Just tried to find someone else who had a sandbox account and couldn't find him or you.
  • Mike Lapidakis · 2 months ago
    nope, the sandbox dosn't talk to wave.google.com yet. The bots that are hosted on app engine work though
  • Nikolay Kolev · 2 months ago
    I hope I get one today.

  • tgines · 2 months ago
    Got my account set up within the first 30 minutes of the first wave of invites. Woo Hoo! Actually... wave isn't very much fun without any of my people involved. I can see the promise of the future though, and it's pretty awesome... except that I see no way to contact other people outside of wave (eg. other email addresses)
  • kevinarth · 2 months ago
    definite bummer. hope they find a way to open it up so it can really replace traditional email.
  • Aaron · 2 months ago

  • jbcarey · 2 months ago
    I actually forgot if I signed up to get an invite.... or is it random?
  • jaysal · 2 months ago
    Well I haven't received and invite from google yet. But.

    I did get invited from another WAVE user.

    However.

    Invites from users are not immediate.

    It says Invites are not immediate. " we have a lot of stamps to lick "

    Sick sense of humor from google.
  • dvd kopieren · 2 months ago
    Hopefully, I’ll manage to get my hands on one. I’ve dropped a line to a few friends as well, just in case they get it before I do.

    Can’t wait…

    Thanks
  • kovshenin · 2 months ago
    I received an invitation today from my account at wavesandbox.com (Google Wave Developer Preview) and yes, I'm officially in the Wave now. W00t! It's funny though, both engines have seperated, wavesandbox.com seems to be working on its own, and we can still see the debug menu there, and yes it is quite messy in there. I was disappointed by the end of September when I took another deep look at the sandbox, I thought that the public wave preview will be the same, but hey, they've fixed quite some bugs there! Actually, I wasn't able to find any major ones at all! Good job Google! The 8 invites they gave me, sheesh, they were out in 2 minutes :D
  • kovshenin · 2 months ago
    P.S. My Google Wave account is kovshenin [-at-] live [-dot-] com Hope to see you soon ;)

Oh well, maybe in the next roll out =) Of course, if anyone has an extra they wouldn't mine parting with, you can reach me at claprade [at] gmail dot com. Can't wait to hear how the first wave of testing goes!!

    I've been trying pretty hard too. If you share with me (jkadis at gmail.com), I'll be sure to pass it along to other Mashable readers too...
  • teaneedz · 2 months ago
    I'll pass one your way if/when I do obtain one jkadis.

    Where's all the mashable love?? Google Wave will help support my tea habit. It will help put a tea leaf through the hot water.

    Invite please?

    jaxiakiley -at- gmail
  • GhostLikeSwayze · 2 months ago
    I got one earlier and ran a small Wave with the only other person I know on there.

    They should have done more than 100,000 invites. It is way too hard to find people to ride a Wave with. I am running on Twitter @ghostlikeswayze trying to find a group of people to have a 10+ person Wave to see how it does.

    The functionality is cool. Watching the other person type live is nice with the exception that they can see you correcting typos, writing something that you may not want to publish and it looks a little odd. I will post a little bit later after I get more in depth.
  • colinbacon · 2 months ago
    I'm definitely worth inviting on Google Wave, so if anyone has a spare invite please invite me! :)

  • Fernando E · 2 months ago
    To those of you still waiting, sit back and relax: my invite was sent out at around 3:00PM EST, and landed in my Inbox at about 4:45AM the day after (13 hours, if you're counting). Wrote a quick-and-dirty somthin'-somethin' on my site about it. No rehash, just first impressions. And an excuse to use surfing terms, really.
  • Aaron · 2 months ago

  • Christopher Daniel Cox · 2 months ago
    For those of you who have gotten invites and have invited other people as well: how long did it take for them to receive your invite, if at all yet?

    I invited my 8 people last night as soon as I got in, which was around 10:00pm CST. It's now 6:30pm and none of them have gotten their invites yet. :(

  • jeanettehawkinson · 2 months ago
    I would love to get an invite. How awesome that would be!!
  • Matthew · 2 months ago
    Wave is uglier then myspace and at the same time open to too many potential problems ...
    I don't understand how people can be this excited - it doesn't change anything - it's the same as usual - twitter will die out one day - wave too if it doesn't implode on itself. The comments over google wave sound like a bunch of men jerking off to a(n) _____________________. (Noun)
  • Geevz · 2 months ago
    I want an invi too
  • Fieke · 2 months ago
    I asked Google for an invite as Google Wave might actually change my life. I have ADHD and need my life to be as uncluttered as possible. I believe, from what I
    ve seen of it, that Google Wave will help a great deal by doing just that, take the clutter out of a lot of things in my life.

    If anyone has an invite for me, I would greatly appreciate it. If not, I'll just have to wait until Google sends me one. Sigh. Never wanted anything so badly as this!
  • Fieke · 2 months ago
    I can hardly wait! Asked Google for an invite. I have ADHD and need my life to be as uncluttered as possible and Google Wave can help me achieve exactly that.

    If anyone has an invite for me I would greatly appreciate it. If not, I will have to wait until Google sends me one...sigh.
