Forget about Bing. Do the Google Wave! While the evil forces of steve Ballmer were introducing their feeble attempt to regain control over the Internet with their search engine ‘answer machine’ Bling Bing, Google had their own party. While Steve was trying to do his best to convince the press why Bing will be important, Google VP of Engineering was rocking with his own keynote speech. The same developers that gave us Google Maps (it’s just brilliant), came up with a new technology called “Wave”. And yes, as with all Google products, its going to be available for everyone and there will be API’s for programmers that want to do their own cool things with it.
So, the most important question is: what the heck IS Wave? In Google’s own words:
“Google Wave is a new model for communication and collaboration on the web.”
Now, that is as generic a statement as you can make, I guess. As far as I am concerned Wave is Google applications (Docs, Reader, etc..) on steroids. Anyway: looking at the video that Google made during the presentation, is probably telling you a lot more then I can. No wonder that at the end of the presentation about 4000 developers were cheering like crazy. Once again Google schooled Microsoft on how to do things.. The Web Way.
So check out the video below (and the photo’s after the break).
