What is Google Wave and Why Should You Care

Google Wave describes itself as “an online tool for real-time communication and collaboration. A wave can be both a conversation and a document where people can discuss and work together using richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.”

Basically, Google has created a community networking application where you can contribute to an ongoing conversation among your community, using diverse formats such as videos and maps. It is basically a step above Facebook and Twitter, where your community is building constantly updated content relevant to your interests.

• If you are interested in including your brand in popular culture and see marketing opportunities in the highly organised target markets of social networking sites, than Google Wave should be interesting for you as well.
