Google Wave Gives New Life to Pointless

Google Wave is widely being regarded as revolutionary and is expected to become the new must have application for this brave new internet of everyone knowing everything about you and everyone else being told, whether they care or not.  Most likely, they don’t. Which is why Google Wave provides the new benchmark in pointless nonsense we don’t want to read.

Having been included in a number of Waves we have so far struggled to grasp one nugget of anything even remotely resembling useful information.  Typical nonsense includes “Can you read this?”, “Wow this is so cool” or “OMG LOL ROFL LMAO TBH IMHO ETC BLAH YADA”.  The only thing I get from Google Wave is that it has potential to be a very useful tool.  But it won’t be.

It will instead be hijacked by people hell bent on telling you a lot of stuff you don’t want to know, or telling you a lot of stuff that just doesn’t matter.  Google Wave is not the application for people who care about significant things because they will be disappointed with what will turn out to be a new way of passing on the same old jokes.

Google Wave will do for email what DVD did for the movie publishers.  When you bought the Blues Brothers on VHS it was great, really funny actually.  But then you bought it on DVD, the same bloody film but this time it’s on a disc.  Well that was a waste of ten quid wasn’t it.  Google Wave will bring us wave after wave after rehashed wave of the same old crap we’ve receiving and deleting for a decade.

Revolutionary?  No, just another way to get p****d off with those people who only exist on your Facebook/Twitter/MySpace/MSN/Email spam ring.  Enjoy.
