Update: The contest is closed. I have sent the invitations to the four winners. Thanks, everyone, for commenting!
Yesterday I got invited to preview Google Wave. I was kind of surprised, because I don’t think I signed up for the invite. Google Wave is a collaboration tool, and right now the only person I’m collaborating with doesn’t know how to embed video (maybe when he’s 2). Maybe the overlords at Google read this blog and know how big a fan I am (ha!). Regardless of how I got it, Google Wave is still pretty cool to play around with.
I got some invitations to send to others along with my invite. I gave a few away on Twitter last night, which was fun for a short while. Now I want to try an experiment. Tomorrow I will give the people who leave my favorite comments on this blog post a Google Wave invitation. Since I don’t expect to get more than one or two comments, I’d say the odds are pretty, pretty good.

I’m trying to get a invitation for so long but i’m always a bit late. If you are kind enough to share one please???? argy.evri AT gmail DOT com
I hope this time to be lucky…
Shannon, maybe they sent you one just because in your blog design you show a picture of waves at the top?
If you still have an invite to spare, I’d love one, by the way…
Hey Shannon,
In a shameless attempt to try and gain access to a google invite, I rushed to the computer when my housemate showed me you were offering some, stubbed my toe on the desk and the nail flipped off in my excitement. I know, bloodied and injured all for google. What have I become. But I would still love one if you are offering
Oh and I am from Australia. Does that help? hehe with my Hugh Jackman good looks LOL and fair dinkum aussie accent.
Okay, that’s enough of my injured wit for now.
Thanks. CJ.

你好 Shannon：
I am sinstar. I come from Taiwan. My English is very poor. But I really want to got googlewave invite so I write on this message.I think googlewave invite is very hard to get here. Google is not very popular in Taiwan. Yahoo is the most popular web service here.I am a google lover and I love wordpress too.oh I love your red hat….three.I hope you know what I say (My bad English).
Look at these people. Look how desperate they are !
They come up with tragic short stories and ultra-witty comments to impress a lady.
I stand no chance !
Shannon, I bet you are enjoying this.
Anyways my email id is: gajadonga AT gmail.com
While I do have a Google Wave account, I have few people to Wave. Since I was invited by another person, I don’t get any invites, and would like one for one of my friends. I do realize, unfortunately for me, that the other people above me should probably get it, but I figured it’s worth a shot.
