Ride the Wild Wave

If you're yet to be up to speed on Google's next big thing -- Wave -- here's what SitePoint has to say about it:
We all know about protocols like HTTP, email, and instant messaging. Google have now developed a brand new protocol called Wave -- and the applications that power it -- which aims to weave a bunch of those protocols into a new, coherent whole.
In practical terms, this puts IM inside your email, Twitter inside your IM, maps inside your Twitter, and much more. It's hard to overstate the ambition and scope of this project, but if you want to gain a clearer picture, I recommend listening to the full presentation Lars gave in late May.
