Google Wave was first unveiled at Google I/O in 2009, alongside our first
draft of Wave APIs and specifications for the open-source world. We worked hard this past year
to bring you a host
of new features on our first birthday at Google I/O 2010: open
sign-ups, attachments and data APIs and open-sourcing of a significant Wave
component, the rich text editor.
From seeing demos in the Wave pod in
the Developer Sandbox to having conversations with attendees in person, we were excited to see
all of the ways people are using Wave and the Google Wave Federation Protocol inside
enterprises. It was extremely valuable for us to hear your questions and feedback in person
and via the session waves.
For developers out there who weren't able to
attend I/O in-person, we hope you can join in virtually by watching the recorded videos of the
various talks.
