Years ago, when Google only had its search engine, I read an article somewhere saying that Google is preparing for World Domination. Probably the basis of the following website: GoogleWorldDomination.com. I asked my colleagues then how in the world would a search engine company dominate the world?
With Google's latest and probably greatest product - Google Wave - I think I've got my answer.
Google Wave consolidates the most important internet communication technologies into one simple interface. You can do everything from simple messaging to complex simultaneous wiki-type editing.
Another feature that I liked is that when you make a change or reply to a wave, the changes are sent real-time character by character to the server, then to other wave clients.
One true step for Google in World (maybe Web would be a better word) Domination is making Google Wave open source. That means anyone can download the software and upload it to their server.
Another exciting feature of Google Wave is the ability to create extensions on both client and server side. This allows web development companies (like KayWeb) to create customised versions of Google Wave and onsell it to clients.
What kind of customisation? We cannot reveal. We can confirm that a trademark is already pending for our desired products.
Unrelated to what we will do, we would like someone to create a Skype extension for Google Wave to allow for Voice and/or Video calls.
