Do any modders have Google Wave yet?

I have. Add me dayonic@googlewave.com if you want to work together on a test game design document :)

Aww didn't know it came out yet. Guess I didn't get in the beta.

Yeah I'm waiting on an invite too, I'd love to give it a crack to see what its like and whether it'd be useful for any game-related stuff. Don't know anyone with it though so I can't try it out.
Been waiting for a discussion here to pop up on the usefulness of Google Wave for game/mod design purposes, using it for dev meetings etc, it'd be a great tool. But I don't think enough people around here have tried it to warrant much of a discussion yet

Alpha invites and person-to-person invites are going out in batches every day. I think they are mostly stress testing atm.

There's quite a few game devs on Google Wave atm, with a few Waves (similar to forum topics) on the go. I'm going to try to write a guide to using Google Wave for the creation of a GDD with a few of them.

I'm absolutely in favour of this. Not sure it's perfect for a 'formal' GDD, but for getting the basics in place Wave would be awesome.

It might work for a formal GDD.
When you next go on GWave, check the 'Custom Gun - Test GDD' Wave i made :)

Looking forward to getting my invite in the future, someday, probably. I think this will make an excellent tool for a GDD. It's difficult enough to keep a team on the same page, keeping up to the minute updates on any development can't be a bad thing. At the end of my last big project there were changes made that I wasn't aware of until the very end, this kind of tool could, in theory, alleviate that.

I don't know if anyone is giving out invites, but if you are, please send me a pm/email :D.

I heard that iCamels taste like iCrap- so not very useful IMO..

well unless they have rockets on their feet and can transfer packet data. :D

I got an invite today in the morning. It's all set up, yet I find it confusing. Would anyone care linking to game development-related... "waves"?
