This really needs a set of users to help test this. My username on that is zitterbewegung . I have a wave called hacker news.

I've never seen a good summary of Google Wave. Anyone hear a good one?

It is basically a combination of real-time instant messaging (where each letter typed can be seen as it is typed), email, and collaborative document editing all in one. You can have as many people typing and editing at the same time as you want - which can be very entertaining actually among curious hackers goofing off. The key though is that each conversation is contained in a single object, the wave, and you can add as many participants to that conversation as you like, including "synthetic" participants or robots. Right now robots have to run off Google's app engine and you can write them in either python or java (we chose clojure on top of the JVM). You can also add "gadgets" to the wave, which are client side objects that all participants can see (in the same state) and when the state is changed, all participants see that change as well. Additionally, the wave is tracked temporally, so that you can "replay" the conversation as it occured.

So what we are doing is using a Robot to transfer information between our webapp and Wave and inserting gadgets to give views back into our webapp, etc. Robots are a very powerful idea.

What I've never understood is how this is any different from IRC with a bunch of handy bots (esp. a logging one) sitting in on the channel.

gmail meets twitter meets gtalk meets wiki meets pingback - with a twist that you can have web pages a client to wave so you can show there your feeds too and that typing can be seen real time on the other, recipient, side. Oh and add to that that there can be multiple participants. Participants can be robots too, and you can mash up all of that into multiuser game kind of experiences.

Whenever I try to add a gadget from the 'All gadgets' link, using the xml url, I get the same error:

-------------- IntegrityError at /gadgets/mine/

(1062, "Duplicate entry 'Wave name' for key 'title'") --------------
