<i>Google Wave, a new tool for communication and collaboration on the
Web, leverages an innovative real-time multi-user document known
as a Wave. Each Wave is a hosted document that can be used for various
idiomatic workflows including, but not limited to,
instant-messaging-style conversation, document collaboration, photo
sharing, event
organizing, live blogging, meeting agendas, flame wars, or a
combination of all of the above.
</i></p>
<p class="techdesc2"><i>
In the simplest form, each Wave contains a hierarchy of
named XML documents. Each of these documents supports concurrent
modifications and low-latency updates between their participants. The
Google Wave Federation Protocol is an open extension to XMPP that
defines how these hosted documents are shared
between organizations and their users (typically bounded via
domain name, in the same style as email or an instant-messaging
service). This XMPP extension is an almost completely new type of protocol,
one that is far from the delayed nature of SMTP and requires a
greater level of reliability than traditional instant messaging. More
broadly, this new protocol poses various challenges for development
and deployment, some of which may even be seen as hurdles to
mainstream adoption.

<p class="techdesc2"><i>
This talk will present the Google Wave Federation Protocol and discuss its relationship to existing systems and networks.

I just got an invite to Google Wave. Should I be excited? Has anyone<br>
here used it yet? Is it useful? What for?<br>
