Huh? You sure didn’t need an invite for Wave when I was using it.

    I’m not saying you are lying. Just saying that it did have a run - several years - where an invite was unnecessary.

      It lost its "momentum" by then. The marketing got "early adopters" excited, the kind that would evangelise a platform, but they were blocked because either they couldn't get in themselves, or couldn't invite their colleagues. By the time Google realised their mistake and provided access to everyone without an invite, it was far too late.

  They had a briefer invite only period than gmail. But definitely had one.
