I just received an invitation of Google Wave from a friend, and I was clueless on what it was about. But after reading your tips of using this tool in the classroom and watching the You Tube tutorial, I can see how this could be used as a tool for educators. As you stated it will not be an overnight transformation, and a lot of getting used to. As I continue to learn the world of technology, I hope that by the time I get used to it it does not become obsolete.

Just got the Wave invite but too busy with school work to explore it deeply but from what I can tell you are right on! As my son (who gave me the invite) was describing how it worked and showing his set up to me all I could think about was how to use the features with my coworkers at school. Can't wait to get moving on it!!

Hey, thanks so much for this. I had Google Wave on a rolodex card in my brain, but it was blank. I too can’t wait to use it. How the heck will I ever get an invitation. I can’t believe email was developed 40 years ago. I never had a lava lamp. I didn’t see email for the first time until 1993. I’m such a dinosaur.

Thanks for the heads-up, sounds interesting. LOVE the group job titles! (font girl, smart guy & keyboarding goober) Gotta have graphics girl or guy too! (I’d like group work with people like that ;-)
