Hi Matt,
I guess I need to have a look at my stylesheet, on reflection – black links on dark grey text is not the most obvious!

Irina immediately published the result here … and for Google Wave users Jon posted it by embedding the Wave into his blog.

Your point about Etherpad seems absolutely right, although I’ve never used it – I don’t think necessarily we were using the best tool for the job. But, Wave caught the imagination and no-one has invited me to an Etherpad before!
I didn’t really make this post about the tool, I think this post is more about real time collaborative working experience. But yes, the experiment itself was also totally about the tool, about understanding the impact of Wave when it goes mainstream – as a bunch of CMS professionals – again with all due respect to Etherpad it’s not in the position to change the game like Google can.

Is there a link to the published blog post? Maybe I’m just being blind, but I can’t see any link to it in the article.

Also, how is this any different to using Etherpad and the likes of that? I mean, Wave looks interesting, but if you are just using it to collaboratively edit a piece of text, then there are far simple ways of doing that.

-Matt

You are terribly kind Irina, but a terrible fibber.

Love this quote “It was probably at this point that I felt like the bloke that drinks beer and finds himself in that young and trendy vodka bar, it’s kicking off, the cool kids are dancing and I am asking for the music to be turned down – “errmmm, you can’t say that!”.”

For the record, you *are* a cool kid
