I received a google wave invitation today! Thank you! When I have the ability to invite others, I will.
I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yay! I'm glad they're finally going out.
(I also think it was a HUGE mistake on Google's part not to give people the ability to invite others instantly, even if it meant starting with a smaller beta pool -- there's essentially nothing you can do to try it out without contacts, and I think a lot of people got it and looked and went, "okay, but what does it do?")

lifehacker has a great article about Wave, and one of the first commands they tell people to use is "with:public" - it is overwhelming, but I'm digging reading all the waves.

yeah, with:public is fun (and vaguely early-internettish, in that delusion of being able to see it all way)

It reminds me of when I started using tweetgrid and followed some trending topics. Everything just scrolling on down in waves of info.

I'd love a wave invite when there are some

All is well that ends in pizza.

I don't suppose they will be cheap enough to use in my glucose tester or my car remote...
