The Great Google Wave invite thread. Anyone who wants an invite post your Gmail address here and anyone who has invites available please use to invite the people on this list. There are also a bunch of requests in the Invites group here: http://friendfeed.com/invites
I have a few but holding them for a few people who have already asked me. I'm at kolint [at] googlewave [dot] com btw. A pain I know but if you can, could you update your comment when you have an account or just delete your comment. Ta! :-) EDIT: Try this site for invites: http://googlewaveinvites.com/
- Kol Tregaskes
Are people on this list getting invites or at least been told they have an invite on the way? You might have to be patient, it could take a long time for one to come through.
- Kol Tregaskes
Adam, yep agree. Maybe because I did that (month ago though) helped me get mine through from Vijay so quickly!
- Kol Tregaskes
@Kol, the invitation process seems to be based on nominations. For example, everytime someone nominates/invites you, you get bumped up the queue for an account until you're at the top and you get sent an invite by the team
- Ysabel Legaspi
Ysabel, ah I see, So lots of people must have nominated me. Darn, so a few users I have nominated could be waiting a looooong time. :-(
- Kol Tregaskes
if that voting system is right I'm very annoyed. I asked for an invite months ago, now all the numpties are all over it I'm not going to get a look in. It's like I've been sat at the front of a shop queue and everyone's just walking right past me into the shop. I am British but I detest both queuing and waiting, so this is pretty tough going
- Toby Graham
Like most other people, yesterday I wasn't aware of that I «needed» a Google Wave invitation this badly...but now I am!!! quackofdawn at gmail dot com

neternity@gmail.com and i promise to send a wave of 100,901 twitter followers to your doorstep each of whom will have averaged 1 tweet in their existence - this might not get me an invite but surely it will get some notice - must have that something special - my google wave invite special sauce ingredient is twitter juice PS Not to be construed as an offer, not valid in any of the 53 US states, do not try this at home, caution: contents are hot.
- Ross Button

- Marco(aureliusmaximus)
I'm also trying. As Marco said, it doesn't hurt :) iamclem at gmail. thanks!

- Ross Button
how do we know which ones are sent? I'm just doing my own thread.
- Raphael, Raphael
I've been too busy to get on FF the last few days....figures something important happening and I missed it! I knew about Google Wave but didn't know there would be a thread to post a request. In any case, better late than never, I'd love an invite at madeliene2007 at gmail.com. :)
- Bonnie Foster
I've been on Twitter all day trying to get one, I'd love it if my day can end by me finally getting an invitation :) I'll be sure to send some invites to other people in this thread! andryou@gmail.com

- oliv21
How does anyone know if someone has already been invited? You could go back and edit your comment when you receive an invitation, but since that takes days, it could be ages before you know.
- marziah
I've not even had a nomination, RK. At google dot com I'm suezanne , in the event anyone wants to make a nomination. I've asked before on friendfeed. It's kind of humiliating to beg.
- SuezanneC Baskerville
i have decided that if i do indeed get an invite, i will decline, forward my gmail account to windows live and put ie back as my default browser and i will bing it
- Ross Button
@Ross: why punish yourself for something you didn't do? :)

allanbesselink<at>gmail<dot>com ... please!
- Allan Besselink
I'll wager that some of the folks on this list have received their invite by now, or no longer want one - I have 16 invitations at this instant. It's probably easier for me if you DM.
- SuezanneC Baskerville
fifiquimbo(at)gmail(dot)com. I would love one, thanks!
- Fifi Quimbo
I have 8 invites to Google Wave, if someone is interested, please DM with e-mail address. Ciao, Andrea
- Andrea Romoli
Yes, sorry about that, we are working to address these issues as fast as we can.
- Lesley Yarbrough
No worries. I have noticed a few glitches over the last couple days. Not unexpected with such a complete redesign, but far better than the long outage you recently experienced.
- Robert Couture
The first one is Harley Quinn, but I wonder if I could find a clown costume like hers. I love her
- Shevonne
The doesn't look like the Batman Harley Quinn to me. The Silk Spectre costume rocks, but I think you are more of a straight jacket type girl
- RAPatton
That first one is so very NOT Harley Quinn. [/Comic Book Guy]
- Steven Perez
And you would totally rock the Silk Spectre costume. Which would be bad for me, because I'd never hear the end of it from Amber. :D
- Steven Perez
#1 is elaborate. but I like #2. as you mentioned, there may be a lot of women wearing #2. #3 rocks but I know I could never have my arms bound like that without going mad.
- jbrotherlove
Mean Girls quote: "Halloween is the one night a year when girls can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it." ;) haha
- Shevonne
...and if we're taking suggestions outside of the presented options, Zatanna, Wonder Woman, and Catwoman are my personal femme fatale. Or a different version of Harley Quinn.
- Wirehead
#3. Yep. 3 also won't look funny if it is really cold and pants are inevitable.
- Amber, Random Time Lord
#2 and you would kick some in style. #3 gets me too but the cold consideration is there, in Montreal it went down in not even a week so... show us as soon as it's chosen *wink*
- ElijahBailey-Zu of FF <0,
yellow and black without a doubt, the one in the middle
- paul terry walhus
I gotta go with #3. #1 is a definite "no". #2 is so-so.

"Civil rights and community activists in Richmond are protesting a banner on a downtown strip club depicting President Obama as the Joker from Batman. Representatives from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the Nation of Islam and other groups gathered outside Club Velvet at noon Monday to protest what they called an affront against the nation's first black president and "veiled attacks on all African people." At a news conference that was part street theater, a dancer from the club walked through the crowd with a sign that read "Strippers for Obama" as a drummer kept a steady beat. Club owner Sam Moore said the banner is not racist. He said he's simply unhappy with Obama's policies."
- Thomas Hawk
from Bookmarklet
If you'd prefer to be simply termed misguided and ill-informed instead of racist you should probably bang that drum harder.
- Richard Lawler
I really wonder if the owner put this up because of his disagreement with Pres Obama's pollicies or just to get a stir up around his club. If he really has an issue with Pres Obama's policies I think this is a dumb way to try and win people over.

Every time I see this pop back up, I think: To the left, to the left, to the right, to the right To the front, to the front, to the back, to the back Now dip baby dip, come on let's dip baby dip baby

Heh, if you read it from the bottom up, it's almost like a mirror-image of the Konami code: instead of up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start, it's no up, no down, no right, no left, stop.
- Victor Ganata
@Victor Ganata Have you tried the Konami code here on BK?

Welcome Baby Ryan!!! My baby Ryan (17 years!) and I are honored to welcome another superstar to our planet! Love, hugs, and lots of kisses to Baby Ryan, Mommy Maryam, Dad Robert and big brothers Milan & Patrick and of course Grandma!!! My guess on Ryan's arrival (predication) was only 23 hours off. I thought he would arrive on Friday, Sept. 18th at 11:45 pm. Love to all, Kelly & Ryan Kim
- Kelly S. Kim
What a moment, eh? I remember when my daughter came into this world, it was so exciting there were no words for it. Congrats on your wonderful baby boy!
- Michael J. Carrasquillo
Congratulations! Welcome to the world, Ryan. :-)

Congratulations Robert and Maryam! And welcome Ryan. If I was having a baby today, I'd begin a blog for him/her straight away as an online diary they could look back on when grown up.
