Brett,

They have not made the extension public yet. They just gave a preview to the GTUG manager’s group. Also, it wasn’t a link, it was an e-mail they sent me about their hack-a-thon.

That is so interesting to me. Do you know if anyone can try this extension out or was it just tested within their group for their hackathon? Could you post a link to the article? I imagine an extension like this would have a lot of kinks to work out but it sounds very cool.

Also, I should have mentioned that the list was in no particular order, but I do think as a musician I’ll find a lot of use for using Wave with songwriting… especially cowriting.

Interesting that you had songwriting down as number one. I was just reading a post from the Korean GTUG (Google Tech User Group) regarding their Google Wave hackathon. They made this neat extension that supported bringing in different instruments and setting the tempo and chords. So, you could basically start with your chords then bring in instruments and play with the tempo of each instruments. Change chords, change instruments or tempo.

Very cool gadget. Little buggy as it was hackathon work. Hopefully they will keep working on it.
