A lot of speculation has taken place about what and where Google Wave will take us. I’m not against it at all, in fact I am all for Google Wave. However I don’t think people really uderstand what it will do for them.
I’ve looked into the system as a whole and realized that Google Wave is still in it’s early development stage. People are still figuring out what it can be used for best. The way I see it is that Google Wave is only a tool that brings together other online services. It’s in the application where the power lies. I don’t think it will have much use for the average user, but for businesses, especially IT businesses, it will give a tremendous boost towards their business models if integrated correctly.
This integration will depend on the people themselves. Yes, developers will create programs that will be useful. However, I think the big money will lie in the developement of your own “robots” or programs that uniquely fits your business profile and adds towards ease of use internally and externally (employees and customers).
People with a bit of savvy will realize that this is an ongoing creation and not a finished product. Have a look at Ubuntu Linux. This operating system beats any other hands down. The problem comes from integration and ease of use. It’s taken Ubuntu Linux years and years to create a great operating system, all done by the community for the community. I’m not saying that Google Wave will take years and years, but people will have to give it time to mature.
The fist ones to realize this and acts accordingly will have a huge advantage for the future to come.

I had a look at it, yes, it's really the same type of software. Cloud computing. The difference with Google And Google Wave is that they're busy interconnecting all their cloud based services into one universal login. Your Gmail account. This combined with Wave, combined with businesses integrating it will create a very easy to use cloud based service.
I'm not saying google is the beginning and the end. If you've got something that works and works well, why change it.
Thanks!
