Hello All!  This is just me testing out my new Google Wave WordPress plugin called wavr.  Below is a test wave I set up.

and if you don’t have a google wave account, here is what it looks like.  What’s nice about it is that you can customize the look with different background and font colors.  Also pretty cool, I can edit the wave from within my blog post.  I have to be logged into my wave account (either in another browser window or the same browser window if i’m using tabs).

I can definitely see the usefulness of this.  I’ve seen some conferences try to figure out ways to aggregate information.  By adding the twitter bot and other bots, I may be able to use wave as a quick and easy way to aggregate information.

A few bummers:

1. default colors are less than ideal, but luckily you can change that. so for example right now my code to embed the wave reads: wave id =”your-wave-id” bgcolor=”#FAEBD7″ (enclosed within brackets)
2. people that don’t have a wave account can’t see the wave.  here is what they see: this is kind of a big let down.  it would be useful if they could at least view the wave…but unfortunately that’s not the case.
