What is Google Wave? ...and How will it Effect my Business?

We attended Google's IO Developer Conference in San Francisco in May 2009.  During the first day Keynote, Google announced and Demo'd Google Wave.  It took me 15-20 minutes before I "got" what they were introducing.  The Wave Software has the potential to change the way we communicate and significantly change the software we use in business today. It will be a few years before we know if Google Wave is going to take off.  However, it is very helpful to understand how the web could change when planning  your business IT Infrastructure.
