Google’s latest anticipated
project in the large sphere of intuitive ideas has been moderately difficult to
define in respect to what it actually revolutionizes. For the average reader
seeking an all-encompassing conceptual understanding of Google Wave, it must be
understood that even the most seasoned industry experts have trouble explaining the
scope of this project.
To put in a simplified perspective, Google Wave is a single,
flexible, borderless communication medium that brings together elements of
instant messaging, email, collaborative rich document editing, and an open-source
framework for plenty of third-party Web applications – and it already works on
the world’s most popular mobile phone.
While some 100,000 or so private beta testers are still
waiting for their invites, a few sources on the net have already confirmed that
Google Wave works on the iPhone through mobile Safari. According to TechCrunch,
the Google Wave site has been optimized for Webkit-based browsers like the one that runs on Apple’s fruit-themed
device and Google Android phones.
Given the tensions between Apple and Google in the past, it
is unclear whether or not the App Store will permit for a dedicated iPhone
edition of the platform. Nevertheless, Google has confirmed that when Wave is
bookmarked on the device, it will actually start up in “app mode” rather than
as a webpage. This may signal Google’s possible intentions to create
full-screen web apps on a variety of mobile devices.
