First of all Google doesn’t condone the sale of it’s Wave invites. Secondly, is it worth risking the Backdoor.Tiderv Malware Trojan (some would say yes. Lol). Scammers convince Waver’s that they can earn money by selling their invites to others. (According to Symantec). So keep an eye out for these muppets/scammers.

What does a wave invite look like and how do I receive one?

A wave invited gets sent to your inbox with a link that takes you to a Google page to sign up. That’s it, nothing else.

Here is a screenshot of a Google Wave Invite.

This link will take you to a Google Url

It should look similar to this screenshot:

Best way to get an invite is ask someone you know to invite you. As it only gets sent to your email address.

Not much is known about Google Wave except that there are hopes it will do away with all other forms of collaboration. The way I see Google Wave developing is that it will become a very useful tool to connect different business services onto one platform. This will become more and more popular as more and more businesses use it. This is a system for the big boys, whoever invests time and effort to implement and understand it, will be leading the pack. However, at the moment we’ve not even touched the tip of the iceberg.

Developers have to get stuck in and create reliable secure programs for the Wave system to plug into and connect business services. The important thing will be security. Google Wave will make it possible to do purchases directly via a Wave.

People and businesses will only adopt these game changing methods (as well as keeping the old methods) once it becomes mainstream and 100% reliable and secure.

(Google Wave Explained by Mashable)

I wouldn’t get my hopes up right now. We’re still a long road away before it becomes integrative for business structures.

In the meanwhile we need to address the security issues and discuss them.

What we talk about and demand the system to have is what the developers will develop.

The butterfly feeling of Google Wave will soon disappear however, it will come back when Wave services have the ability to grow your business’s bottom line securely.
