Email is one of the oldest Internet apps, and most popular. How could it be better?
Google has a great idea called Wave that you'll see on a desktop near you soon. The company has led the way showing how applications can be deployed through web browsers using AJAX technology. Think Google Maps.
In the video below, Google introduces Google Wave, a server-based communication tool that integrates email, chat, and other forms of personal communication. Think of it as managed conversation aggregation and distribution. Or, server-hosted communication objects with classes for email, chat, photo sharing, and so on.
More simply, Google Wave is an extensible Content Management System that will replace your email and chat and much more. And you'll do things you never thought about.
I've put together a Table of Contents with time stamps for each section of the video so you can find the topic you want.
It's nice to see great innovation in the browser. I think this obsoletes the Office suite.
