Google Wave Invites

I received quite a number of comments from my previous post, and they're all requesting for invites to Google Wave.

While the number might vary between others, along with my Google Wave account I have 20 invites to give away. To be honest however, after few weeks, I have not invited anyone despite of all the requests I received!

I know I shouldn't be too selective in giving out invites, but I was trying to not give invites to people I don't really know (and these are the people asking me for invites). This is because to me, Google Wave is less useful (or less fun) when there's not much of my friends in there. My so-called 'friends' are however either already have an account, or are not tech-savvy enough to appreciate an invite (which I think would be a waste if they get any anyway).

But anyway, I guess it's time to start asking selected friends personally and see if they're interested, one after another. Till then, I'll not open the invitation to those requesting for it…

Here's a teaser;
