Excerpt: Despite having “numerous loyal fans, Wave has not seen the user adoption we would have liked,” Urs Hölzle, senior vice president of operations at Google, wrote in a company blog post.
Wave, which was introduced to much hype at a conference for Google software developers in 2009, was conceived of as a collaboration tool housed in a Web browser. People could use the application to chat, edit documents, videos and photos, and play games together.
But Wave had so many different features that it confused many users, who never figured out how it worked. Wave also has several competitors, ranging from Salesforce’s Chatter to Jive.
