Wave was a great product, still is actually. I liked it a lot too.

But let's get it straight ... Symbyoz is far from being Wave.

Wave is an awesome brute force of technology. We're not even close. Wave intent was to replace email. We don't (meh ... Google is a legend, I'm a lone hacker). Wave was a self sufficient (closed?) communication and collaboration tool. We aren't. We talk to Facebook, Twitter and GMail right off the bat. Wave target was to rack up every e-mail users out there. We obviously would like to dream about it, but ... :)

If Symbyoz grows, it can become a lot more like Wave. For now, it's just a social platform to quickly jot down ideas and share with friends.

I think of it more as the secret child of 43things and Evernote who's being raised by Facebook.

(And for the rotating comic, I'll definitely take care of it :))

Thanks for the feedback !
