Last week Google announced they would stop development on Google Wave at the end of 2010.
Google Wave was ahead of it’s time. We wrote about Wave and your business in October of 2009. Although Wave held a lot of promise, we had problems finding the right ways to use the capabilities of Wave.
But all is not lost on Google’s experiment with Wave. Many of Wave’s technologies, such as real time collaboration, have already made it into other Google products.
Kudos to Google for being ambitious. The fact they pulled Wave so quickly was a bit surprising but I’m sure they’ll put the lessons from Wave to good use.
