Most people are still heavily reliant on email and instant messaging for their online communication.
These services have been around for decades and new communication tools have since been invented.
Blogs, wikis, and social networks are becoming increasingly popular ways to interact online.
One of the biggest technologies that Wave is out to change is email.
Email has been around forever and many of us use email constantly at work and in our personal lives.
Email is good for some things but it can quickly get out of hand.
Sometimes it can take 3-4 back-and-forth emails to answer a simple question.
Think about how much faster this would be if instant messaging was used instead?
Wave strives to make all of these situations more clear.
Wave blurs the line between these technologies and makes it easier to pick the best one for the situation.
If they are away, it’s possible for you to leave them messages in the wave for later.
Wave adds the flexibility of email with the convenience and speed of instant messaging.
