I want to thank the blogger very much not only for this post but also for his all previous efforts. I found http://www.whytwitter.co.uk to be greatly interesting. I will be coming back to http://www.whytwitter.co.uk for more information.

“Are we are the only ones who write an email, then revise it for tone and clarity?”
No, but you are clearly a (very small) minority.

Thanks for showcasing the pitfalls but I was wondering if Google Wave is safe enough for SEO professionals/website owners discussing possible gray-hat including paid link strategies? What are the chances of Google reviewing the conversations?

Hope to get a response from you on this. Thanks!

1. Phone numbers, etc. should be part of the profile, profile needs to be expanded, with some sort of privacy stuff, like maybe phone numbers are only visible to people in my contact list. And yeah, it can get messy, that’s what deleting blips is for.

2. Yeah, seems to me that the unreleased draft functionality should be on by default, or at least give the user the choice to do that in their unreleased settings functionality.

3. Yes, this is true to a point. But all participants are listed at the top, and it’s pretty easy to create a “private” wavelet, so you are only talking to the person you want to hear it. Hey, and if somebody can’t take a comment, who wants ‘em around anyway. But it would help if you could remove people from a wave, I assume that functionality is forthcoming.

4. Yeah, I agree, there’s a lot of tools out there, but we’ll just have to live with it for now till the good stuff rises to the top; and, who knows, the ever increasing number of platforms may just become the norm and the tools will evolve for us to be able to deal with it.

5. I see a lot of potential for it, especially in business. But it will only survive if tools and mechanisms evolve to allow users to keep the waves manageable.
