In the late 60’s if was FM radio.  Around the mid-70’s Datsun became “Nissan”.  By the early 90’s it was this strange new phenom called “the internet”.  After that, everything started approaching light-speed.

Today TNNT is born, lives, and can either survive or die within days, sometimes even hours.

Google WAVE is past a few months of life, now, and it’s likely to stay through the sheer force of it’s corporate support.

About two weeks ago, I got my Google Wave invitation, and was ecstatic, ‘cause for weeks and weeks, about 100,000 other geeks had it and I DIDN’T.  That’s like denying Harry Reid access to The Next New Taxpayer.

OK, so now I have WAVE, and yes, it IS pretty cool….but the learning curve seem fairly steep (I’ve been swamped lately), and I’ve found maybe…10-15 contacts I know (Kat Keesling among them)…and most of them don’t seem to be using it.

So, how ‘bout it?  Got Wave?  Contact me.  Just do a search for DAVE COURVOISIER. or use my e-mail: courvo<at>gmail.com.

Don’t have wave?  I have about 3 or 4 invitations I can send out (Google awarded me 8 when I got my account).  Let me know, and if I have any left, I’ll send you one.

Do I smell a VO group on WAVE?

Only 100,000 lucky (unlucky?) souls will get the chance to try this Beta release beginning today.  Twitter is aflutter with people trolling about for an invitation.  ‘Not likely that anyone who was actually picked would give up their chosen status, though.

Google is variously touted as the next-generation communication tool – a mashup of email, real-time IM’s, pictures, and threads, all in a one-interface-does-all program.

Time will tell, I suppose…and uh…I don’t suppose…er….ah… you have an invitation you’d like to fork over, do ya?
