I was thinking the exact same thing. It could very well be a good idea that is ahead of it's time. We are still wedded tightly to traditional email, but something like Wave could very well take over in the next say, decade or so.
- stcredzero 16y agoYou know, Facebook is not so far off from Google Wave -- not as much as a lot of techies would like to believe for their comfort.

I don't think the collaboration platform will be Facebook itself (not their focus) but perhaps a startup will come along, look at how people communicate on Facebook, and apply that to business. Wait - there are guys doing that now (I love how framing something by typing it out fleshes out your thought process!) I saw a good presentation on HN on Enterprise 2.0 recently, I'll try and find the link. EDIT: Jive are one example, not the link I had in mind though: http://techcrunch.com/2010/07/20/readying-for-an-ipo-jive-software-raises-30-million-from-kleiner-perkins-and-sequoia/ http://techcrunch.com/2010/07/20/readying-for-an-ipo-jive-so...
