I heard from some news in these days that it is second round invites send by Google. Luckily that I got the chance to use it today. Google Wave interface is pretty similar to Gmail interface and it has Navigation, Contacts, Wave preview and Wave panels. Every new wave you created can be shared to any contact in your contacts list. They can share, reply with rich text html, links, embedded video like Youtube, photos and map in wave. For me, it is hard to describe what it is. But it seems like Google try to organizes email system with chat, documents, photos and extensions with sharing capability.
