Oh man, I need a Google Wave invite, arghhh…
What’s Google Wave?
It’s like, well…um…it kinda sorts your…um, it’s just REALLY COOL and I need it NOW.

That’s pretty much the conversation I’ve been having regarding Google Wave. I don’t really know what exactly it does, but it’s from Google, so it must be great, right? Well, a new website has been launched, pitting Google Wave against other difficult-to-understand topics.
(For the record, so far Google Wave is deemed easier to understand than Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize and Scientology, but more difficult than Sarah Palin, the geopolitical climate of Southeast Asia, and radiocarbon dating.)
As fun as this may be (voting is fun!), the interesting tidbit is that it seems this website was created by a Facebook employee, clearly with a negative view of Google Wave. Is it jealousy? Is this beginning of another internet turf war? Will we be seeing some sort of integration of this new service into Facebook (à la the Twitter-standard @replies in the statuses)? Oh Mark Z, quel scandalous.
