All right, I’m in! … Now I just have to figure out how to use it. They made it look so easy on the video. The other drawback is that it’s blocked at work ☹

Please add me to the Doper Wave, and any hypothetical wave intended to track who needs invitations & whatnot.

I’m larrymudd@ [gmail, of course.]

Any one else need one?

Hey everyone, how can I join this Doper Wave that is going on? I want to play with my new toy. I am brookeln (at) googlewave or brookeln (at) gmail

Can someone add me to whatever Wave is going on?

p.s. I already have Wave, so this is not a request for invite, just want to join the DoperWave! 😉

In the wave now. I am a bit disappointed at how slow it is due to the large size of the Wave but hopefully they will fix that eventually

As something of a passive member rather than a profligate poster here, I’ll understand if the invitations go to stalwart posters first. If there are any left over, though, I would dearly love one… PM me for gmail address if you can help!

Thanks.

I’ve got one for you if you still needed it (but your PM is blocked). Should I use your gmail address on the contact page?

Bad onomatopersonwithlongname here. I didn’t realize my PM was disabled. Sorry about that. If you (or anyone) still have any invites available, I could sure use one.
