Mashable just broke story saying Google Wave has now a million members and many more invites are being sent out. I say about time. Google Wave is not a whole lot of fun if all or most of your friends are not on it.
So far I have used it with very few people, very few times, and all I have done is have instant messenger like short conversations. So far I have not used the multimedia features or the document collaboration features. Or how about publishing a wave as a blog post? I think I would like that greatly.
Google Wave needs to be scaled and fast. Go for the masses. It is gift giving time.

Finally Real Time Search From Google
Mashable Story: Real Time Search From Google
Read Write Web
Tweets And Facebook Updates: The Mumbojumbo
Search: Pregnant Territory
Twitter Should Hand Over Search To Google
Search: The Human Vs. The Machine
Dynamic PageRank And Real Time Search
Microblogging Search: What Took Google So Long?
Real Time Search: Twitter Is Not Doing It
Search Come Full Circle: That Human Element
This is a moment I have been waiting for for a few months now. All tweets reside on Twitter's servers, and they still can not fathom all tweets. All Facebook updates reside on Facebook servers and Facebook still is not serving a search on Facebook updates, I thought. Let the king into the ring. Let Google do search.
Finally Google is doing it.
But this is only the first step. I don't want to be able to search the here and now. Actually the archives of tweets and Facebook updates are of greater interest to me. Help me see all sorts of patterns. Dig into the archives and display in many different ways.

House4Cell: Mobile Real Estate System
House4Cell.com uses mobile technology to market real estate. You text in the code found on the property and and immediately you get all the information on the property and you get as many as three photos. People on the move will stay on the move. The thing is can you do business with people who are on the move? That is pretty much everybody these days.
House4Cell.com lets the realtors send flyers also over email and fax. It is all integrated. There are more ways than one. Noone else delivers real estate photos on Verizon phones but House4Cell.com.
Go mobile. Yes, you can.
EZUnsecured.com
EZUnsecured.com helps you finance your business. Credit is not easy coming by. That is where EZUnsecured.com comes in. This is not easy money, this is not free money. But when your business could really use some cash, and that cash is not coming the usual routes, and you have been knocking on the doors of banks without much success, that is where EZUnsecured.com will step in and make sense. But you better have a plan for that money. You better grow it right. Or you could get thrown off balance. They can take as much as 10% of the money they might find for you. That is the kind of price you have to be willing to pay for credit not so easily obtained. But if you know what to do with the other 90%, you should get going. EZUnsecured.com does unsecured financing.
Elgg: A Job Marketplace
Elgg is a job marketplace. If you are looking for top designers, coders and talented techies in general, dig deep at Elgg Exchange. This is the go to place to find Elgg developers.
Too many job sites out there are too general. You post a job and you collect resumes like you might have collected stamps as a kid. It is often a deluge. Instead of finding someone to do your job, you get a job, the job to plough through an endless stream of irrelevant resumes.
Egg Exchange is much more specific. The site attracts top talent, developers who value "beautiful design, beautiful code, high standards." The site lists about 100 jobs at any one time. So it works great for those looking for jobs as well. It is not a flood. It just helps you make an informed decision. If you are in the niche, you should not have to look around too hard.

Arrington's Thanksgiving
- Microsoft and old media: Not the best way to compete with Google.
- 1997 Steve Jobs. A great way for Arrington to celebrate Thanksgiving.
- Chrome add-ons.
- Facebook has been lousy with search so far. It has to treat each update as that unit that we should be able to search. It has to be more than about looking up people.
- Facebook updates did not kill Twitter. Twitter geo tagging will not kill FourSquare. I think FourSquare might be upto something.
- Angel investing is not for the chicken hearted.
- 999 business ideas.
