Google’s final Good bye to Google wave

Google had launched Google wave few months back as a most ambitious Google project. This projects promised real-time collaboration, a combination of wiki and chat, and plenty of other advanced features. But very few people were able to find it useful.

It was launched as a invite only project which was announced for every one just few weeks ago. Now Google is saying “its over now.” Google will no longer continue this project.

Google wave is a open source project which became Apache Wave. 

Google has announced some exact dates about the future of Google wave,”More than a year ago we announced that Google Wave would no longer be developed as a separate product. At the time we committed to maintaining the site at least through the end of 2010. Today we’re sharing the specific dates for ending this maintenance period and shutting down Wave. As of January 31, 2012, all waves will be read-only, and the Wave service will be turned off on April 30, 2012. You will be able to continue exporting individual waves using the existing PDF export feature until the Google Wave service is turned off. So we’d encourage you to export any important data before April 30, 2012.”

Google also suggested to use Apache wave, if a user wants to continue with Google wave.
