    I'm also looking for one. People tend to sell their invites rather than be kind and give it to meh. :(

    I want it just because it would be good for work and school, but they haven't given me anything. It's all part of Google's plan to control the world's economy with invites to their latest toy.

    ^^^ It's like email, forums, iming, etc. all mixed into one.

    Open-sourced so people can add more stuff.

    Facebook/twitter aspects.

    Blogging.

    They're basically just jamming sorts of ecommunications together.

    To be honest, it looks cool and it should have lots of potential.

    though on a small processor like my EEE laptop it is very laggy, the java script is very heavy when you in a big wave 50+ edits or replys.

    im silll waiting for some invites when i get some ill be sure to post a new topic or invite the people in this topic.

    I got my invite today, huzzah! I guess applying for an invite does eventually get you one.

    I'll tell you when I've figured it out. It seems cool, especially if you work in a team environment (it might be cool for my job), but I don't know if it's something you actually need versus want. Anyways, I'm waiting for my friends to get my invite. Since mine came from Google, I don't have any contacts to test it out with.
