At present, we are close to wrapping up development on the four elements that constitute our basic offering. First, we now have a real-time stream of content, which includes database scrapes of selected public records, RSS feeds of news sources and blogs, tweets, Flickr and Picasa photos, YouTube videos, and placeholder advertisements. Second, we have a working stream engine that pushes content to web-enabled smartphones and our web widget. Third, we have a real-time filter that enables the end user to filter the stream for items that contain specific words or text strings. Fourth, we’ve built a web-based dashboard that newspaper advertising staffs can use to manage and analyze ads and ad campaigns.

Daniel said: A sharp knife through the hype. Best Google Wave review yet. Quote:
But see, if you need an 80-minute video to explain your product, well, that's a bit of a problem. Google says Wave is a tool that lets you "communicate and collaborate in real time." But what does that mean exactly? Because at one level, the idea of something that lets you "communicate and collaborate in real time" is not such a big deal. A chalkboard lets you do that, for example. So does a telephone. Heck, a pad of paper and a box of crayons can do that.
