Qonversation is a brand new way to join discussions on your favorite topic. Many people compare it to twitter because of the simple way that the topics and comments are structured. To me the major difference between Qonversation and Twitter is that you follow topics not people. This is an interesting way to connect with a much wider audience.

Google Wave is a new tool for communication and collaboration on the web, coming later this year.

What is a wave?

A wave is equal parts conversation and document.
People can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.

A wave is shared.
Any participant can reply anywhere in the message, edit the content and add participants at any point in the process. Then playback lets anyone rewind the wave to see who said what and when.

A wave is live.
With live transmission as you type, participants on a wave can have faster conversations, see edits and interact with extensions in real-time.
