Google Wave was a real-time collaboration platform similar to an email client that allowed multimedia embedding in threaded discussions. Google Buzz integrated social networking features into Gmail like Twitter but without character limits. While Wave and Buzz aimed to change online collaboration, user adoption was low and newer platforms rose quickly as users sought the newest apps and experiences.

16. New Paradigm in Online Collaboration Collaboratively editing a Wave that gets instantly published to a blog is mind blowing. When anyone can wander up to that blog post and drop comments or edits and it flows back into the Wave I was beyond astonished. I can now use a blog for a big class and have every single conversation happen in real time either in that blog or in my Wave client (if that is even a real thing). Instead of browsing to sites (even via an RSS reader) I can just stay in Wave and watch all of the conversations happen (Camplese, 2009).
