Google Wave – Another Amazing Platform
by ibrahimjon on Oct.27, 2009, under E-tools, ICT in Education, Learning News, Technology, e-Learning
Google Wave is a new online tool for real-time communication and collaboration. A wave can be both a conversation and a document where people can discuss and work together using text, photos, videos, maps, and more. Learn more at wave.google.com.
Today I have received an invitation to preview and use this amazing tool which is being developed by Google. It can used as platform for your class to create documents and continuously edit documents, embed surveys, maps from Google Map, graphics and even videos.
What is interesting is that Google Wave supports also plug-ins which means users can contribute creating various plug-ins. Real time work enables users at Google Wave see how a document can be improved real-time by editing. Look forward to see many colleagues when Google Wave Beta will be public.
