The first wave in the title represents a hand movement of raising your hand and moving it from side to side as a way of saying farewell. The second Wave represents a failed product from Google. Do you still remember how much buzz it generated when the Google Wave was announced a year ago? I do. Back then, it was labeled innovative, revolutionary and a brand-new way to communicate online. It must be too revolutionary and goes a bit over. As a web veteran, I thought I had no trouble understand anything new on the internet. But I was proved wrong, by Wave. Google Wave was so confusing to the point that I found I was purely dumb when using it. Well, Google has just made another good decision to dump Wave for good as it didn't meet the satisfactory user adoption level. Fine! I won't feel sad about it. Look at the growing pool of Google's dead products, and I wonder if Tencent has the same problem. We make out successful products easily but always fail to notice the failed ones that lies all along the way.
