Google Wave bye bye as service closes
Good riddance to Google Wave.
I never understood what the fuss was about.
Wave may have been clever programming, but it didn’t do anything other applications already did better. Google has better tools for most Wave tasks.
It did instant messaging although Google already had tools that do the same job.
Wave did communications. Why bother when Gmail is so much better?
Collaboration Wave
Wave was a collaboration tool. Who needs that when collaborating on Google Docs is so easy?
There was a social media twist to Wave, but Twitter, Facebook and Linkedin are all simpler to use and way more polished. Although they each come with problems.
Wave had a bad user interface and was difficult to use.
More importantly, it was difficult to understand what was going on and what one was supposed to do.
Google Wave was a flop. Let’s hope the search giant learns lessons from the experience.
