Thank you for helping David Fine manage his inbox.

I can't see any new and different downsides of using Wave, as compared
to Gmail or other Google products.  I haven't used it more than a small
amount of playing around, in which it didn't seem to do the things I
thought it was supposed to do.  I expect it centralizes its information,
which would be problematic for many if it catches on, but possibly no
more so than IM systems *IF* Google lets other people implement Wave
servers.  I haven't done this research at all though.

There was one article I found helpful on what Wave is for, but I can't
find the link.  if I run across it again I'll forward it to you.
