VizWorld Wave Experiment

Running a little experiment here for those of you lucky enough to get into the Google Wave beta.  Even if you didn’t get in then maybe you can watch and see what it’s kinda about.

After the break I’ve embedded a public Wave that anyone can edit.  Stop on by and leave a comment, and see what the fuss is about.

I’m considering setting up a Wave for VisWeek next week where attendees can meet & chat about the events, maybe plan get-togethers. What do you think?  How can we use Wave effectively?

Update: Looks like Google hasn’t actually enabled “Public” waves.. So before you can do anything you’ll need to give me your Google wave address so that I can add you to the wave.  Simply post it as a comment, and I’ll add it to the wave (And if you like, automatically delete your comment).

Update: Looks like they have actually.. If you have a Google Wave account and you’re signed into it, you should see the wave below. Enjoy!
