If Google really is taking over the world, I think I like it....

My previous effort is possibly the quickest web post to become out of date since King Harold tweeted: "@haroldI: all going well, the arrows look very small" from atop his horse at the Battle of Hastings.

Now, I may be slow on the uptake here (a week is a long time in webland these days) but I've just discovered Google Wave.. and it looks like it's going to be very special indeed.

For some potential applications to the Talent / Engagement agenda:

- think internal comms / skills networks for ideas sharing and collaboration
- think alumni groups coming together
- think brand building and reputation management
- and consider the view that this is may well be how God intended email to work in the first place

Google Wave. Tell your friends where you heard about it first...(unless it wasn't here of course)

Hope I'll be bringing more ideas on how to ride the Wave later this year...!
