Google Wave phase 2 starts Wednesday

Tue 29 September 2009 20:46, Bas van den Beld

After the announcement of Google Wave there were many marketers, search specialists and others interested in testing and playing with the newest Google-feature which potentially will change the way we work.

Starting tomorrow 100.000 'chosen ones' will receive invitations to start using the service. Many people who have registered to be one of the chosen ones will be disappointed but can still have a little hope. Some of the invited people will be able to invite people themselves.

The ones gaining access tomorrow will be developers, early users and a group of Google apps customers.

Google says Wave is not yet ready for "prime time" and therefore tomorrows launch is called 'preview'. It already warns for downtime in their blogpost. Reports are however from the really early adopters that Google Wave has become a lot faster and more stable over the past few months.

We haven't gotten our invite (yet?) and to be honest are not expecting one tomorrow, but are very interested in it and still hoping. If you are one of the 'chosen ones' please let us know your experiences!
