I liked this article, but, to use journalist lingo, he "buries the lede" a little.

"It’s also tough because since breaking the news to our current set of 3 customers, I’ve received very positive feedback..."

A grand total of three customers. This isn't like Google Wave going away. Or, then again, maybe it is. After all, he had three more customers than they did.

Hey! I'll have you know I loved Google Wave. :)

Kidding aside, Google Wave is an interesting case because it's a product that actually was very popular, just in a use case that was completely different than what it was intended for, and in a way that didn't serve Google. Many startups/companies were using Google Wave as a simple project collaboration tool, and honestly, I still think it was one of the better tools out there for that, and I haven't found a decent replacement.

Haha, I completely agree with you - which is why it's so silly I'm feeling like I'm letting people down - it's just 3 people. I need to get over it and move on.
