Waveboard for Mac is just a browser like Safari with, maybe, some extra features..
Ridiculous really.

Mac app works just like a Prism'd version, but with Growl notifications and better options.

Didn't receive any Wave invitation, though I applied for one. Is it possible to wave with somebody who do has an account, if you yourself don't ?

Um ... that's not really a hack. It was built in by Google. They just didn't tell people about it, but not a hack.

Waveboard looks more like a site specific browser than a client.

It was bound to happen. Now just to see its compatibility and stability on apple technologies.

It sounds to me as something like Prism but for the Mac only. I like the idea of an iPhone app, but what's the point if it's the same experience as in the browser?

Would you want to share an invite with a friendly stranger? I'll be inviting others from this forum if I get an invite.

So once upon a time, this really great guy named "christopherscottknell" wanted to give the prettiest, geekiest girl that he randomly met through a form, and invite. He only had 2 to give, but he really enjoyed her unique story. He wanted to share the google wave experience to show how kind and generous he was. The End.

Haha, in all reality, I want to test this, and I really want to help Google get the ball rolling on this. I'll invite people from this forum with my invites, if you invite me. Thanks!

hmm question: since when did "SSBs" (Site Specific Browsers) become "applications" ?! there is nothing special or unique about this ... anybody who knows how to click buttons can create these desktop "apps" using tools like:

Fluid: http://fluidapp.com
Prism: http://labs.mozilla.com/prism/

as for mobile, no such tools yet (as far as i know) but all it takes is an embedded browser like safari/webkit, a couple lines of code and a cool icon ...

Ya that was my first guess when looking at the screenshots. Gotta love the hype.

I'm just waiting for next week's "Omg you can add themez to wave"

Is this really just Safari in an App window? If so you could make this in under 60 seconds. Takes longer to make coffee and I doubt anyone cares what I drink this morning.

Wow, this works much better than any of my browsers.

I cannot predict the future, but like Kurzweil, I believe in a soon to come shift.
Everything starts to shift for me and a lot of friend wether, casual, power or devs when it comes to computers and internet.

And one of theses shift concerns Google: Microsoft came with Bing and plans a new web browser while 70% of users still use IE anyway. Chrome is not even available on Mac Os and Linux, and by the time it will be, Firefox and maybe Safari will have released their new versions.
While I used Gmail, because of Greaders, Docs or Groups, a lot of alternatives (Office 2010 ?) are beginning to show up.

And Wave is simply the biggest internet release fiasco I ever seen, a lot of users seem to not only have trouble understanding Wave but can't even use it because they are alone, and I won't be surprised if a more innovative and open alternatives get releases in the first quarter of 2010.

So yes, I'm not a complete Google ball sucker, even if the Almighty Google is one the biggest start-up (And I've tried a lot of their prototypes and robots, but after all Microsoft and its IE used to be big too, as well as Myspace or Geocities...

Makes sense for the multiple session aspect. Also for not having wave crash your regular browser.

Thanks for the clarification Christina

Yes, Google will surely fail as a company because you have given up on Google Wave.
