That's how I felt, too
Have you heard about Google Wave? If you haven’t, don’t worry; It’s only the most game-changing technology on the horizon (assuming it doesn’t get relegated to the Google great ideas wastebasket).
Wave is hard to sum up. At it’s most general level, it’s a communication tool. Ho-hum, right?
But this one is different. First, it updates very close to real-time (I’m guessing this has to be some kind of AJAX wizardry, but I’m not a programmer). So you could watch an email being written to you the same way you could see someone typing a response to you over instant messager.
… whoa.
That plus level upon level of what I like to call ‘PFM’ (i.e. “Pure Frikkin’ Magic”) technology, makes this the kind of innovation that could render email obsolete. And render me a drooling, wide-eyed, ecstatic techie.
