It’ll be interesting to see if this person’s view of Wave remains a year from now. It’s true that Wave is in preview and not fully released with a ton of kinks to sort out. While I agree with some of his points, I also realize that Wave is quite different than anything we’ve experienced before, so I’d like to give it time to understand and give Google the opportunity to offer a really great addition to the way we communicate. But we’ll see.

I’d have to agree with Brett. I think maybe the functionality of Google Wave is currently too heavily reliant on Bots and Gadgets which operate on occasion and with lots of bugs. Perhaps the preview release is a little on the premature side: some of the functions are still a bit unintuitive. Also, it’s surprising to see that the “Wavers” (as it seems the developers have called themselves) did not already integrate other Google products (Docs seems like a natural inclusion) in an intrinsic way, seeing as many of the current Preview users are already happy Google/Gmail customers (like me).
