Busy turning down the noise, unfollowing on twitter, removing "Friends" on facebook, deleting foursquare and linkedIN and the next thing i wake up this morning to find google had me opted in to this shite. I've deleted all but one google account now, and tried my best to turn off as much of the new shite as possible. i'm all for new things and all that - but please don't opt me in without asking, and please _try_ to be something new? Yuck. Last thing I needed.

I think that is the main reason why Wave didn't work was because it was suc a drastic change that people were just not ready for!

That's doesn't fit for me I'm not sure if Google wave can hold what it pretends, but I wish myself a hybrid between Massenger(skype), Email, and shared documents.

Not every product of google is good, but some are! “I am very happy with email and most of the world has been for about 15 years now.”

It's gotten so bad for me that I've started to seriously readjust how and what I use in terms of the social tools. As for email, call me old-fashioned, but it's my workhorse tool.
