POPS How to get a Google Wave Invite Invites are being given out in small batches- if someone says they have 1,000 invites, beware! Tips & Warnings * If you get an invitation and go to sign up, and are presented with anything that tries to sell you something, back away as it's probably a scam. * Be careful! As with any big thing, spammers and scammers are trying to take advantage. If in your quest for Google Wave you're asked to scan for viruses or provide financial information, turn around- you're being scammed. 6 Search eBay for an invitation. A few Google Wave invite owners are selling on the site. You can bid, but beware eBay is deleting some of these listings because selling a Google Wave invite is like selling someone else's intellectual property.

POPSMaking Public Wave Yesterday I got invitation for Google Wave, and I started exploring the features of the Google Wave. But the important thing is, I couldn't explore many features without having other participants in my Wave. If you want to include myself as participant in your waves you can add me (rajamanickam.a@googlewave.com).

POPSAt 10% Unemployment America Still Doesn't Have Enough Workers But of course, it's really not much a paradox at all. After years and years of a housing bubble, we have millions of Americans trained in some capacity relating to housing, and those skills are no longer needed. Concepts like this should shred anyone's notion of an output gap. Sure, American hands are underutilized, but if those hands don't have anything to do that's productive, can they really be considered unused "capacity." No, they can't. And this is the problem with big, macro-thinking. You can point to two GDP trendlines and say "Look, undercapacity..." but that totally ignores the ground level where real employees have to find jobs that they're suited for, and no amount of expansionary practice can change that problem.

POPSGoogle Wave, Screenshot Tour and Video 
When someone updates a wave in your inbox, it turns bold and moves to the top of your inbox"just like email. If a contact of yours is online, a little green dot appears on his or her icon. All the modules are collapsible and dock themselves in the upper part of the screen. If you've collapsed your inbox and a new wave gets updated, it flashes green. Here I've clicked on new wave and minimized all the other modules to expand my workspace. You can add all sorts of rich content to your wave, like a YouTube video, Google Map, image, links, or anything that a gadget enables. (More on gadgets below.) Here I've added some colored text and embedded a video clip in my wave. When I finish typing and click the Done button on my wave, Wave pops up the "Add participants" module so I can share my wave with anyone on my contacts list. You can search for a contact by name, or just drag and drop anyone to the wave you choose. Once you've shared a wave, the magic starts to happen.

POPSGoogle Wave Rolls Out to 100,000 Users Tomorrow The idea is to drag email and IM into real-time—so it's free-wheeling mesh of Twitter, IM, Friendfeed really, any other kind of service presenting semi-real-time stuff in a stream. But in Google Wave, you can share and collaborate on projects, and all of this is mashed together at once, so it might be the ultimate service for people with ADD, or enterprise looking to simulate the feeling of 10 people standing around a desk scattered with a bunch of projects, but you're all able to work on any of them simultaneously while you're also whispering to the cute girl across the table about the new sushi place around the corner. You start a wave with any message or photo or whatever, and you bring people into the discussion, and then they can bring other people in as well (unless you block it or start kicking people out) so it's as public or private as you want it to be.

POPS Chrome for Clunkers
In a little more than a year, Google Chrome, the search company's speedy and innovative Web browser, has managed to win over about 3 percent of Internet surfers. Is that good or bad? It's certainly not a blockbuster, but consider the hurdles Google faces. Unlike Internet Explorer or Safari, Chrome doesn't come pre-installed on any computers. True, Mozilla Firefox faces the same problem"but Firefox, which now has about 23 percent of the market, has been around since 2004. You might also argue that Firefox captured an easy market"people who were sick of IE and wanted something better. Chrome can't do the same; everyone who wanted to leave IE has done so already, and the only folks left to convert are those who don't know any better. How do you persuade people to upgrade their browser when they don't even know what a browser is? You hide the upgrade. That seems to be the ingenious theory behind Chrome Frame, a plug-in for Internet Explorer that Google unveiled this week.

POPS"Wearing the Internet" more: MIT’s Media Lab has explored the idea of wearable computing for some time. “Wearable computing hopes to shatter this myth of how a computer should be used,” states the program’s web site, “A person’s computer should be worn, much as eyeglasses or clothing are worn, and interact with the user based on the context of the situation.” Pattie Maes of the lab’s Fluid Interfaces group goes one step further. As the leader of a team of seven graduate students that developed the system, she characterizes it as somewhat more than a wearable device — she refers to it as a digital “sixth sense.” No, she can’t see dead people. But, as a recent TED demo shows — sans keyboard or monitor — she literally has the Internet cloud on her arm (and her hands, and…).

POPSThe Future of Social Networking is...Email?!
I've been thinking about this very idea recently and then came across this article from @jeremiah. I was mostly coming at it from a product and user experience perspective. It seemed that a some of the 3rd party services based on Twitter (and Twitter too) have been coming full circle and deploying email-like strategies for both functionality (routing, groups, etc.) as well as the presentation layer (check out seesmic's list view on the web). Think also about how important email is to Twitter and facebook's user experience: where would they be without "now following" or "comment" emails? In the meantime, while those guys duke it out, Google has been infusing the social piece into their apps, and they've been doing it for some time now. With the recent social networking enhancements to GReader (in addition to GShare) they seem to be at it in ernest. Given the reliance on emails to bridge relationships between user/service and user/user, plus the adoption of gmail (among other G built pl
