Overview
Get in front of Google Wave, the exciting new real-time communication and collaboration technology that unifies email, instant messaging (IM), wiki, and social networking functions on one integrated platform. This ebook offers you an early look at this game-changing technology while it's still in the development stage.
In the first two chapters of this user guide, you'll quickly learn about the Google Wave structure and how it works. The second two chapters help you work with the Google Wave Client, a web app that allows end users to participate and collaborate.
This ebook is just the beginning.
