Extra Credit: Google's Wave & Bing

Google's Wave Consolidates Core Online Features in One Tool - Business Center - PC World

Wave as a Solution to “over-sharing”?

Reinventing Email, Docs, event planning, and chatting

Challenging Google: Microsoft's Bing

Questions:

1. Do you think Wave the next big thing? Do you think it is “new enough” or needed or are all the separate web apps OK with you?

2. What problems would you like solved by software or webware? What really annoys you on a daily basis?

3. Does the web (and Wave in particular) make the question of a Mac or PC irrelevant?

4. What questions do you have about this technology?

5. What do you think of Bing (available on June 4)? Is it a real Google challenger?
