By now you've read the accounts from a couple weeks ago about Google Wave, the experimental, open source collaboration and communications tool that bundles e-mail, instant messaging, photo sharing and other tools in one application. Google Wave hijacked the Microsoft Bing announcement when Google announced it at Google I/O May 28.

Lars Rasmussen, the Software Engineering Manager at Google who introduced Wave at Google I/O, wrote:

A "wave" is equal parts conversation and document, where people can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more. In Google Wave you create a wave and add people to it. Everyone on your wave can use richly formatted text, photos, gadgets, and even feeds from other sources on the web. They can insert a reply or edit the wave directly. It's concurrent rich-text editing, where you see on your screen nearly instantly what your fellow collaborators are typing in your wave.
You can then refer back to a Wave to see the whole conversation and document thread. When a Wave is open on two users' screens, messages bounce right off Google's servers into another user's browsers to enable instant messaging-like communication.

It’s undeniable: Google Wave has captured the imagination of techies, social media enthusiasts, and web users everywhere. Its combination of email, real-time chat, wiki tools, and social networking have generated an incredible amount of buzz.

While the focus of this buzz is centered around Google Wave’s features, there’s an aspect of the new platform that hasn’t received the attention it deserves: Google Wave extensions, which allow any developer to add their own gadgets or robots to the open-source tool. Extensions offer the potential for Google Wave to end up being used in so many different ways. But what exactly is an extension? Why would someone build one? And how exactly does one go about it?

Thanks to developers Sam Gammon and Nick Hume, we now have the answers to most of these questions. We looked inside the process of building a Google Wave extension, from start to finish and assembled the following guide, which explains the concept of a Google Wave extension, why they’re important, how one can be built, and what you can expect in the coming future.

Yanina Toranza-Viera is a citizen of Uruguay and a permanent resident of the United States. Eight years ago, she came to the United States as a university student looking for work experience. What started as a six-month trip has become so much more.

Gallacher: Was it hard for you to leave home? Toranza-Viera: It wasn’t at first. It was my decision, and I really had a good time. But after the adventure was no longer an adventure then I realized that I may not be able to go back to Uruguay to live because I was already starting a life here. I began to wonder what I was going to do and how I was going to make it, being so far away from my family.

I am here by myself, and now I have a son, but my whole family is in Uruguay. So it has become a little more difficult and I am realizing every day that I am going to stay here. Gallacher: I am reminded of what John Lennon once said, “Life is what happens while you are making other plans.

A computer program that lets office workers chat on MSN messenger while giving the appearance that one is working has recently become extremely popular. The program, JustChat, allows messaging content to appear in the windows of various software programs that office workers use, such as Microsoft Word or Excel. Users who are actually chatting online appear hard at work as they type away in what looks like a Word document.

Office workers who see or hear their boss nearing their workstation can close JustChat at the touch of a button. The program also allows users to switch between different chat windows by clicking on the tabs that are discreetly placed at the top of each dialogue box.

“This thing is too wonderful,” an Internet user called “QQ” said. Another user, with the online name “Ausir,” said: “How terrible for bosses.” JustChat, developed by a Taiwanese programmer, has been spreading like wildfire as office workers who chat during work hours pass on the news to each other.

In order to access the voice and video chat services on their Gmail accounts, users simply need to download and install plug-in, and have their PCs equipped with Webcams for video chatting.The application download currently supports Google’s own Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Firefox and support for other web browsers and platforms may come later.
