getting access to Google Wave

This post is outdated.


Google Wave is the best thing since sliced bread.
Well, it may become the best thing since email. That remains to be seen, however its potential is enormous. If you don't yet know about Google Wave, watch this (lengthy) video of its introduction at Google I/O:

Being such a complex proposition, it really is best described in the above video. Anyway a lot better than I ever could.

Now, intro over, on to what I wanted to write about.

You may know this already.
But just going to wave.google.com and clicking on Let me know when it's ready will not get you access to Wave before September 30th. And even then, they will only give out 100,000 invites to people who sign up there.

Want to get Wave sooner?
Do this.

Go here and complete ALL the fields in the form. If you're not a developer or don't plan on developing for Wave, please keep in mind that entering information that is at least plausible into the form may help you a lot.

Then wait patiently. My invite came in 8 days. It may be less, it may be more in your case. Or you may not even get one at all. But your chances of getting access this way are a lot bigger than the 'usual' way. Trust me on that one, ok?

And when you do have access, let's try it together. I'm bvlad over there (you might need to append "@wavesandbox.com" to my username to be able to add me as your contact).
