Someone gave really good definition of google wave \u2026 as<em> take Twitter, Gmail, Instant Messenger, Flickr, and Google Docs. Pour them into a blender; stir in robots and open the whole thing up to developers to the mix and start blending. You might have something like Google Wave<\/em> .. interesting han \u2026 yes indeed it is ..<\/p>\n<p>Google Wave was introduced at the Google I\/O developer&#8217;s conference in 2009. Google Wave is an online tool for real-time communication and collaboration. A wave can be both a conversation<br \/>\nand a document where people can discuss and work together using richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.<\/p>\n<p>In Google Waves, people can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more. It is a <strong>shared platform.<\/strong> Any participant can reply anywhere in the message, edit the content and add participants at any point in the process. Then playback lets anyone rewind the wave to see who said what and when.\u00a0With live transmission as you type, participants on a wave can have faster conversations, see edits and interact with extensions in real-time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">[youtube=http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=v_UyVmITiYQ&amp;feature=player_embedded]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">\n<h2><strong>Some Features of Google Waves<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3>Real Time Conversation among many people at at time<\/h3>\n<p>People can talk simultaneously, can share their and ideas suggestions in real time with with many others at a time.

Think of it like a large back and forth thread with one or more people in a discussion forum or through an email conversation.<\/p>\n<p>A\u00a0<strong>wavelet <\/strong>is a smaller branch of conversation spawned from a large wave. This is like the smaller group of party-goers having a private conversation in the kitchen while everyone else hangs out in the living room. That same group could later rejoin the larger wave.<\/p>\n<p>A\u00a0<strong>blip <\/strong>is the smallest unit of conversation. Think of a blip as a single email or a single instant message.<\/p>\n<p>Google Wave is probably a next generation email.\u00a0<span style=\"background-color:#ffffff;\">Google Wave is a communication system, just like email or instant messaging. Only it combines these methods of communicating and adds a few more.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Some Keyboard Shortcuts I found Usefull<\/h2>\n<p>while exploring waves, i found some keyboards shortcut keys that makes wave easy to use ..<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Shift+Enter will submit a reply and start a new reply.<\/li>\n<li>CTRL+Enter will indent a reply<\/li>\n<li>Home and End take you to the beginning\/end of a Wave<\/li>\n<li>Tab or Spacebar &#8220;jump&#8221; to the next unread &#8216;blip&#8217; below (a blip is a message)<\/li>\n<li>Press Shift+Spacebar to move up to see new blips\/messages (as opposed to going to the top of the Wave and pressing the spacebar)<\/li>\n<li>CTRL + click on Wave opens up a Wave in a new panel (hold down CTRL and the Wave)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello All friends \u2026 I hope \u2026 umm no, I\u2019m sure you are having best in every aspect of your life \u2026. hey don\u2019t think i\u2019m again going to tell you something about aspect oriented programming \u2026 no, not at all at this time \u2026 though I know it\u2019s third&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[190,223,234,283,382,436,446,456,466,537,723,804,829,849,925,1079,1080],"class_list":["post-626","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-random","tag-basic-concepts-in-wave","tag-blip","tag-brainstorming-using-waves","tag-communicate-and-collaborate-in-real-time","tag-features-of-google-waves","tag-google","tag-google-i-o-developers-conference","tag-google-wav","tag-group-projects-using-waves","tag-interactive-games-using-waves","tag-meeting-notes-using-waves","tag-next-generation-email","tag-organizing-events-by-waves","tag-photo-sharing-using-waves","tag-shared-platform","tag-wave","tag-wavelet"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aasimnaseem.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/626","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aasimnaseem.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aasimnaseem.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aasimnaseem.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aasimnaseem.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=626"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/aasimnaseem.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/626\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4440,"href":"https:\/\/aasimnaseem.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/626\/revisions\/4440"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aasimnaseem.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=626"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aasimnaseem.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=626"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aasimnaseem.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=626"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
