What is Google Wave?

Google Wave is a new way to do email….and chat….and other collaborative functions online, in real-time. It is still in beta right now, but Google is working on the functionality to be more ready for primetime in 2010. Check out this video on a simple explanation. Right now, it is by invitation only…hence the comment on the last part of this video.

You might ask, what does this have to do with real estate? Think about creating a wave for your buyer or seller. You can post information and documents into the wave and share it, and they can access it. It could even be used to create a property page. You can embed a FloorPlanOnline tour into it using the embed code we supply. You can drag and drop photos. Lots of interesting possibilities down the road.
