Google Wave Looks Impressive
I spent a rather geeky evening last night watching an hour and a half demo of Google’s new Wave product.

I love the idea of students choosing their own computer, own platform, using Mac or Linux or Windows as needed and doing more in the browser. This looks like a leap in that direction.
