Not Drowning But Waving

I've had a few invitations to Wave, and have some to give (most being held for NPIRL), and have poked around at it for a while. My main Wave activities are contributing to a surrealistic novel started by Candide, and helping regroup NPIRL (vast, vast overstatement heh). Doc and I, theoretically at least, are going to use it for development (which is great as my emails sink like stones in his inbox).

One person who sent me an invitation appears not to be there at all, while many other people seem to turn up once a month. They may all be furiously waving in public waves, or may just find it easy to ignore (I threw Wave on my top bar so it's a mere click away to check it and add three words to the novel - or delete three).

My finding are (no surprise) that's it's very useful for actually doing something that needs to get done, but difficult if one is not drowning but waving♦ so to speak, and nobody else ever shows up.
