Several days ago we launched our Massive Google Wave Invite Givaway – now it’s time to award the winners!
The people who commented on the question why they would need Google Wave in their lives, are getting their Google Wave invitations in their mailboxes as we speak (remember that it takes Google a few hours to deliver those invites: it’’s not an instant process).
So, the winners are:
We have been really busy during the last few weeks sorting out our fresh Google Wave account, and now it’s time for our MASSIVE GOOGLE WAVE INVITE GIVAWAY!
Here’s how you can participate: before 30 November 2009 answer this simple question in the comments below:
On 30th November 15 commenters will be selected randomly and they will be sent their Google Wave invites.
So, what are you waiting for? Just answer the question and wait to get your Google Wave invite in the mail (make sure there is a way we can contact you!)
While most of us are waiting for Monday to see if we’re lucky to get a Google Wave invite (and as it turns out, lots and lots of us are still without one!), we thought it wouldn’t hurt to get to know this Google Wave thing a little bit better.
Would you like to hear and see Google Wave explained in plain, simple English?
Well, you have this opportunity! Please welcome: Google Wave Video Tutorial!
‘Google Wave Invite is something that can make you happy. Google Wave invite is better than your morning coffee. It’s something you’ve waited for years…’ m-m-m-m….
Repeating this googlemantra obviously did not help us. Here’s the fact: no Google Wave invite in our mailbox yet, as of 1 October 2009. Does it mean we should sit quietly in the dark, dark corner and cry about being a loser?

They want this done this particular way because they feel the need to be fresh and ready on ‘their’ morning to be able to provide all the support they can.
So – still waiting! We’ll let you know the moment we get ours, and will start describing the sweet things Google Wave can do!
Less than a day left until Google Wave launches and 100 thousand users receive their long-expected account invitations.
