Me, too. Thanks, amych!
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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.
Slashdot is linking to story about a Nuclear Battery the size of a penny.

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

Does anyone know where the google wave toolbar is? I'm trying to use some gadgets, but I can't figure out how to get them into my wave. The help page says to drag them from the toolbar, but I don't see one.

I need to put both a CD track and an MP3 file onto a CD, to be played I assume on a boom box. I would just buy the MP3 song on a damn disc, but there's some time pressure as this is for an impending funeral. There seem to be 5,000 conversion programs out there -- any suggestions?
