Wave to the Moon (Google Wave Discussion)

by Eric Greenspan on November 29, 2009

google_wave_logoJoin us for an online discussion about Google Wave, using Google Wave on Weds, Dec 2nd, 8pm PST. I just attended one tonight and it was amazing, so I thought I’d do one for my tweeps. You can register for the event here.

We will discuss, share and demonstrate:

1. What is Google Wave?
2. How will we use it in business and in our personal lives?
3. What are gadgets and robots?
4. Will Google Wave change how we communicate?
5. Will Google Wave replace email?

November 19, 2009

Twitter? Facebook? Linkedin? Where does it all end? How many are enough? Which one is here to stay and gone tomorrow? The answer to these questions lies within the questions themselves. YES! NEVER.
