Google Wave Preview

“Google Wave is gonna take ‘em to the cleaners!” – @jigglemequick

“Revolutionary once again. What a game changer” – maxbeatty

Is This the Start of Web 3.0?

My definition of Web 3.0 seems to be:  Live interaction wherever possible.

Google Wave offers: Live editing, tweeting, emailing, instant messaging, collaborating, search, live auto translation – (speaks 40 languages), auto spell checker – all seamlessly part of one system.

It’s an open system which anyone can develop upon. Encouraging innovation as always.

After watching the Google Wave Developer Preview it is easy imagine the new possibilities of communication that have opened up here. Google Wave satisfies that demand to make communication on the web more integrated and useful. They appear to have done a really good job of it!

The video has many good applauses and ‘wow’ moments!

Quite amazing to watch.

Thanks for sharing.

Using the latest hardware from a distance, gamers will be able to play games from a distance using a small set-top box.

Despite the noticeable control delay from button press to on-screen movement, this will succeed because it will be super cheap.

That and all the benefits of the cloud, such as automatic upgrades, that the clouds have to offer.

Imagine the new games and virtual realities that will appear from this type of system…

We could be looking at a new big bwoy in the gaming market. I didn’t see that one coming!

I’ve always wanted a way to plan a goal quickly and easily. In the past the quickest way to create a brainstorm has been using pen and paper, and it works pretty good.

I wanted a goal planner so much that I even bought the domain treegoal.com in the knowledge that one day I could somehow learn how to program web apps! That didn’t happen, so I was excited to see this website called MindMeister reviewed on BBC’s Click technology program on TV.

This way of planning a goal is now faster than using paper. Any mind maps created are stored online to access from anywhere and can be shared in real time to collaborate with other web users.

MindMeister is free to use and to my surprise it works exactly the way I want it. All the features I was planning for my own ‘treegoal’ domain, they’ve done it.

It’s a winner because they have kept it delightfully simple which reminds me of Google’s applications.

MindMeister have done a really good job building this. I’m raving about it because it’s allowed me to brainstorm and plan a complex goal that would not fit on one piece of paper!
