Is anybody using Wave in IE8 with the Chrome plug in -- uploading files as attachments appears just not to work. Are others seeing this as well?

is there a way to export a given Wave to PDF?
There is a Wave-to-static HTML Bot. Maybe you can than print this static Page to a PDF Printer. - JoeD

Google Wave: In Theory and In Reality
anyone still wanting an invite? - Harold
I still can't figure it out. - Derrick
Me neither. I'm in and already bored with it. - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
it was pretty overhyped as a social networking tool, which it's really not... - Bill Kinney
Why are you bored? I can't leave my fingers from it... It is the greatest Website that I found for a long time. It really isn't a social network. But it is social like a forum. The Public waves are bit like a mashup of a Forum and Wikipedia. You ask a Question invite a few people and wait for your answers to roll in. Or you keep answering to the Waves in your Inbox. There are about 13... more... - JoeD
I can get answers to questions faster by outright Googling them than sending out a wave. I think that's where I'm just plain confused as to the actual usefulness of Wave for the average internet user. Unless you're talking about poll-type questions, which I don't ask because usually I don't care. - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
I'd like an invite if anyone has one to spare. aditya(at)auburnalum(dot)org. TIA - Adi
Adi, I just sent you one, and War Eagle! - John Craft
"Wave is not social in the same way that Twitter, FF are. They tend to follow what I think of as the cocktail party version of social. You walk from group to group at a party, glibly taking part in conversations, holding cocktail party court. Wave is more like a business meeting version of social. A group has a specific problem they want to solve or a goal in mind. They meet, for a time... more... - Brian Sullivan
Really? What problem or goal could I possibly require a group of random acquaintances for solving? I don't see the practical application. Google Wave sounds better suited for people who are already working together in a team environment and need a convenient way to brainstorm and groupthink together or within the same industry. For average people, I can't begin to think of something I'd need to gather all my contacts together to help me solve. - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
@tinypants - the only thing I could think of for my group of friends: a good solution to a forum-based RPG. Yeah, I'd use it to game :) (not that any of us have it yet, but still.) - Jennifer Dittrich
Now THERE is a practical application for it. :D - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
tinypants -- not sure I understand your comment on a "random" group of acquaintances. If you assume that Wave will help you much there I think you misunderstand its possible uses. Have a cocktail party instead. The reason I think Wave will be a success is that corporations rarely want to pay to host a cocktail party but are usually eager to host business meetings that solve business problems. - Brian Sullivan
Brian is absolutley right. It is more like buisness problem solving. But it is not only buisness. Sometimes you can't find a solution for your problem on Google, rarley but true. This is where you normaly would go to a forum or IRC. Now Wave is a mashup of it. You put Your Problem in the first blip. Discuss it below and work together on the problem in the first blip. You can invite your... more... - JoeD
@Brian: Ah, thank you for responding with much snark. Makes me feel good to know that I can be so soundly insulted for disliking Google Wave. When I said "random" I was inferring that the people I am typically linked to on any given service are friends and acquaintances I've made from all areas of life, not just a specific industry or company; for me this also includes Wave. Involving... more... - tinypants - Hagitha of FF

The public waves are annoying me, how can I view everything but the public feeds in Google Wave?

I've used "in:inbox -public". - Kol Tregaskes
i have "with:(-public) in:inbox" and "is:unread with:(-public) in:inbox" saved - immaterial
Did you experince that when you give a filter a color than it will be called evrytime the Search matches? - JoeD

Google Wave to me its just a bit more complicated than Adobe connect. The main issue you want to resolve is remote communication with workmates in a virtual office. Visuals/and audio take care of the mimic but you need a record. So why not just make small visual records of meetings? Not mentally challenging enough for you? Well, then let's throw FF, email, chat, FB, and file sharing all together and see what happens. - Melanie Reed

I've noticed that in Google Wave, I've been locked out for a long time with this error message "You are not a participant in this wave". Also, I can't even seem to be able to open my Gmail normally; only in HTML-only version.
But I realized today that the actual problem was Google Chrome. This only happens in this browser, and it's fine in others like Firefox. Kinda ironic. - Maxamad
I've never had any such issues with Chrome, Wave and gmail. - Christopher A Carr
Chrome is slowest, crashiest browser I recall using, for me. Are you on the bleeding edge developer's version of Chrome or the normal one that's supposed to work? - SuezanneC Baskerville
I'm on the latest dev and it is the complete opposite of "crashiest browser." - Christopher A Carr
It's nice that it works for you. - SuezanneC Baskerville
Chrome works fine (and usually faster) for js-intensive sites (and pretty much anysite). I don't think it's crashy, but it's just perplexing that it has these issues with gWave and Gmail. - Maxamad
Well, I'm using Chrome 3.0.195.27 and Chromium 4.0.202.0 (Developer Build 23181). In Chromium, interestingly, I can't even login. I'll try updating to the latest for both of them and see if that makes any difference. - Maxamad
I noticed that you're an "Amazigh" too! Since when? ;) - directeur
Since I discovered awesome Gnawa and Tamazight music! - Maxamad
Ah! You discovered Gnawa! Great! Welcome aboard :) - directeur

Brian Sullivan
Hmm -- bad enough that IE8 has to be massaged to run Wave but it doesn't work correctly -- attaching files fails. Getting Wave into most enterprises is going to be tough if it doesn't work on IE.
Heh... Who should we blame, Brian? - directeur
I don't know directeur -- who should be blamed? - Brian Sullivan
It seems just not to work -- lots of issues. Unless Google can get this straightened out it will be difficult for Wave to penetrate many large companies that for better or worse are committed to IE. - Brian Sullivan
Brian, I too don't know. I just have a feeling that IE8 is. Why? Opera, Safari and Firefox are well supported and knowing IE's history I wouldn't be surprised. - directeur
IE8 is massaged by installing "Chrome frame" -- it is in "Chrome frame" (which is essentially Chrome ActiveX installed in IE) that it fails -- it is in the Google product that it fails. Assigning fault though is moot -- if it doesn't work on the browser used by the largest percentage of potential users then it will fail. - Brian Sullivan
