Building How-To’s – a Winntastic idea!
Here is a guest post from Winntastic.com about a resource which would make collaborating live-time efficient and long-term effective:
Google Wave — Collaborative Heaven?!
I found this fascinating quote and it’s time to do the wave:
Google Wave will be launched on Sept 30th to 100,000 invitees. If you haven’t already studied what Google Wave will be bringing to the online world, you need to start today. Mashable has created a clear guide to Google Wave, which is well worth reading, and there are thousands of articles on Google Wave out there now as the hype increases for this real-time communication tool.
clickthrough-marketing.com
You can see the famous Rasmussens (heard of Google Maps?) and their team explaining many features in a long video here.
Google says, “Google Wave is an 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 richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.”
The cool features go on and on. Even better, Google Wave is open source, and will surely get even cooler. You have to get on a waiting list now. Go!

Your Sing Well Sing Better blog looks like a great place to use Google Wave to engage with your readers in a forum, or a focus group. You might also use it for webinars, getting to dialog with your participants in real time.
Keep thinking of what you want to do, and how collaborating in real time might enhance the process and bring you to superior outcomes.
Much success to you. Come back and see what we have for you next week!
