When Google Wave was first announced it had a lot of people excited. I for one was dying to get an invitation and eventually ended up getting one. Recently I have been able to get a few friends to use Google Wave regularly. Over the past few weeks we have seen Wave as a very useful tool for our purposes. With that being said Google; announced a few days ago that they are "pulling the plug" on Wave. They have already halted development and plan to keep Wave available until the end of 2010. I know a lot of people never understood the usefulness of wave; and I think Wave was ahead of it's time. Personally I think Google didn't give Wave a real chance. It's barely been known for 2 years and public on labs for less. Anyhow, what do you think happened to Google Wave? Do you think Google should give it another chance or press the abort button? |

As per noted by Google, "It was unpopular and did not catch on with the intended demographics" |

After watching the big Google announcement of Wave, I think everyone was excited. They have been working on Wave for at least a year, and they thought it would be a big hit. Few people got accounts, and in my opinion, seemed like Google Wave had a lot of potential. Pulling the plug before even the launch was a horrible idea. They should have at least launched it before they pulled the plug... it seemed like they didn't even give it a chance. |
