I have been using Google Wave for a few weeks now. It got of to a slow start for me..my first wave was integrating with friends form IRC. I was more of a kill the wave fest than the collaborative experience we were expecting to have. But the wave is what you make of it and we didn’t make much at all. After paying around with the technology I starting hunting for more to do. I was hitting a brick wall of disappointment that I would have to assume that most people hit between being invited to Google Wave and discovering…..

……{with:public} opens up the world to public waves…add a keyword or phase and your away. Public waves are buggy and slow, but if controlled they can perform well. The key seems to be keeping your waves free of robots and extensions.
Google Wave is what I was expecting accept for one thing..it is far more social than I thought hit would be. I have been meeting new people, hooking up with old friends, and trying to hid from others. Discussions break off into branches, yet these branches are easy to follow even when the wave grows. Hitting the space bar moves you through the wave via the unread blips When you reach he end of one way he space bar finds the next wave with an unread blips and takes you there.
I’m a compete Google Wave fan boy.

GTA Fletch
GTA has a wonderful engine. It’s a shame the game is so violent. I would love to see the engine used to produce a game based on Fletch. Comedy, cars, situations…what more could you want. Instead of being on the hunt for a kill, why not on the detective trail. There are many applications for the city Rockstar have built. This has been but one.
But as long as the violence is there…….I had a ball playing GTA with Blueboy the other week. The aim of the night was to create a car park in the middle of Times Square, add a rocket and boom!
Childish but eh…what you going to do?

thingsthatlooklikefaces has moved to its own domain.

Sutter and I have stuck thingsthatlooklikefaces on the jefah.com site until we get the proper domain up and running again. Have a look, laff and comment…then send us a photo.
so..this blog has been using my photos.
Happy to provide my photos to Vegan Revolution’s blog (it’s Meg’s company). My photos have been shrunk so they fit into the columns. I think I need to work on preparing images for shrinkage.
Also..I have started adding a sig to the images I am releasing to the net.
Aus goo
I found this on the footpath…kind of looks like Australia. The Australia from the Brisbane Commonwealth games.
iPhone 3.0
Lots of cool new features for the iPhone coming later in the year. My fav, YouTube subscriptions. Now I’ll be up-to-date on all the NerdFighters, 5AG and omgitslukky news.
Happy days
Tweet tweet
Now that twitter has broken through it’s teething stage, how is it going to make money? According to the site there are 30 or so employees at the company, but no visible revenue. The site is not bloated with advertising, and they don’t charge for API access. The venture capitalist can see the potential, even I can…but when is it all going to happen. Maybe they are just waiting for Google to take over.
