Elite Frontier

A deeper view of Google Wave suggests that Google may want to change how people converse (via Google Wave) and thereby build a platform of tools to let people manage how they converse.

The File Metaphor become a Conversation Metaphor and the concept of “OS” becomes “Tools to manage the Conversation.”

Continuing this idea, means…

• File Copy becomes “a tool to copy Conversations”
• File Diff becomes “a tool to diff Conversations”
• File Delete becomes”a tool to delete Waves”
• Folders become “a tool to group Conversations”
• File Search becomes “a tool to search Conversations”

Possible innovation

• Searching across Waves for common ideas and connecting people based upon those connections
• The concept of Peripherals becomes “Devices that can understand Conversations”

An exciting idea

The idea of “Devices that can understand Conversations” is very exciting and that can possibly be the next set of innovations from Google, since they are already in-place with mobile devices.
