We've been using Wave a bit at work.

It's nice that a ping (IM) can turn into a threaded chat can turn into a document. Editing, with change bars, is great.

It's also great that you can add someone to a wave "late" and they get to see the current state of the wave -- and the history if they care. Much better than forwarding someone an email that has done the rounds.

I agree with the person that suggested it is more useful "for work". Think of it more as "Lotus Notes"-lite than email.
