never did find a use for wave while it existed but it was cool while it lasted..
So google is shutting down wave, or at least abandoning it. Ashame.
I use Wave and love it. I use it mostly for taking/sharing notes on projects or classes. There are a few scalability issues when waves grow beyond a certain size but, aside from that, it works great and is very easy to use.
I've got my account, and I'm starting to connect with people on Google Wave. There's a bit of a learning curve, and it's going to be a slow start for all of us using it. However, this is a new protocol that's going to have an impact on the way we work together and communicate online...it's very exciting to be in on this!
