Post subject: Google Wave Dropped
New postPosted: Wed Aug 04, 2010 10:26 pm 

After less than a year, Google have dropped Google Wave. I never did catch on (and don't remember the last time a. I though about Google Wave b. Logged on to Google Wave.)

Shame, but the right thing to do. As soon as it was released (far too early IMO) it was a flop due to the crappy performance and new concept people just aren't willing to learn about.
Thanks for the post Rich. :geek:

Plus the whole invite thing really didn't work out too well. Too many people wanted to try it but didn't have an invite. If I remember correctly, we helped about 1,000 people get invites but I still fell 5/600 short on invites after it all.

Mind if I redirect this one to this post as support ends at the end of this year? http://mintywhite.com/vista/run-google- ... derbird-3/

That too. I waited ages for an invite.

Go ahead and redirect if you wish. ;)
