Some might well wonder, what is the meaning of Wave itself as it’s attached to Google WAVE?

  1. Wave – the word wave might mean different in a normal English language, in google terms, it is specified for a particular thread of conversations. It can have a single entity or more than one entity or even a group of robots, the best I could explain in this is that it contains entire instant messaging history someone has chatted to. It will have a chat conversation or group conversation’s detailed information.
  2. Wavelet – also means similar to that of threaded conversation but we can say it’s a subset of larger conversation called as wave, it contains a small part of larger conversation with larger history. The wavelets can be created and managed separately from wave.
  3. BLIP – Blip is even smaller than a wavelet, blip means a single individual message. It contains a single line of Internet message conversations. Blips on their own can have other blips attached to them called as children. The blips can be published or can be unpublished depending on the user’s choices.
  4. The document – document is a content which is within a blip and it refers to actual words, characters or files associated with a blip.
  5. Extension – it’s a mini application that works within a wave, there are varied applications in wave you can play while using other apps in this program. The 2 main extensions are robots and gadgets.
  6. Gadgets are the applications which the users can participate with of which many are built of google’s open social platform; these can be termed as a good comparison to igoogle application or facebook applications.
  7. The robots are participants which automatically work within a wave, these robots can talk with users and interact with waves, they are capable of providing information from outside sources such as twitter, etc. they can even perform actions based on the content.
  8. Embedded wave can let you take your google wave and their conversation to your website or any other resource, the users can use this as their chat rooms or to contact others.

Google wave offers you some of the most amazing features which you will not have experienced till now, all in one platform, an easy system where you can do multi-tasking its an ideal solution for fast paced lifestyles of people across continents. Google wave extensions are of two types one being a wave gadget which is a fully functional application and are mostly used for changing the look and feel of waves. Only social networks and platforms like iGoogle is what can run on google wave so this means that thousands of other applications created by google will work on google wave there by enabling users to use all of its features. There are various gadgets built within google wave which have the capabilities to interact with multiple users at a time so this means even playing online games with multi users which will help active participation from users of google wave. This is very similar to features offered by facebook or myspace applications which have wide friend network and helps in making games, applications, quizzes and much more.

The google wave gadgets are very specific to individual waves than that of specific users, so this aspect of facebook is not included in gadgets application of google wave, this gadget belongs to everyone included in the wave and thus no titles and helps in better conversation, some of this king of gadgets which are already designed are bidder, maps and sudoku.

Google wave brings you lots of gadget features which consists of varied file extensions, robots are another type of google wave extensions, they are like any other human being, another person which is involved in google wave conversations the only different being that they are all automated on commands set by the users. The robots of google wave extension are very similar to that of old IM bots like that in the past, they are far more automotised and robotized then the old traditional robots, they are capable of communications with other wave in the loop and are also capable of pulling any information from outside sources. They are very similar to any other users, you have the option of defining their behavior over the chat for example you can ask to change the word from cricket to basketball, it is even capable of doing complex tasks which are fully functional. These are some of the advanced robots of future, some already powerful robots in service are Debuggy which is an wave debugger, then the other one is tweety – the twave robot displaying tweet inside the wave and stocky – helps in pulling out stock prices which are based on stock quotes.

Wave embeds are another powerful feature of google wave, they are little complex things than embedding in another sites as you had been doing in youtube or other networks, yet these will command a higher demand when they start into being, the gadget wave provides embedded waves as its powerful tool which can support many functions of actual gadget wave client which includes drag and drop files.
