So you had asked and here they are. :) Today I got (at last) my share of invites to give out and after going through contacts I still have ~10 for my readers (that would be you).
- long time readers and active commenters get priority;
- use email you want invite send to in comment field, doesn’t have to be gmail account but you do need google/gmail account to use wave anyway (for now);
- these are not instant, you won’t get confirmation that I even sent you invite until several days later.
If you somehow managed to miss it – post on Google Wave preview.

And good to know: Google Wave works now ONLY with Chrome, Firefox 3.5 and Safari. That’s a shame, Opera once again dropped out from list of supported browsers… (I think they have a reason).
(Yes, I have my wave account but can’t use it yet… with my Opera).

Well, for many it’s only “need to get” quest. :) By the way don’t think I have you in my Wave contacts, ping me rarrst@googlewave.com
@Nathan
Sent. :) Have fun when it gets through and be sure to ping me there.
@Simakuutio
Yeah, it’s a gripe but common thing for Google. Opera has distinct engine and not enough userbase for Google to bother with support outright.
Just do as I did – run Wave in dedicated windowof Firefox or Chrome. I do it with Firefox. Convenient and doesn’t feel like multi-browser mess.
By the way glad to see you around, been some months since your last comment. :)

No problem, have fun. :)
Invites turn around seems faster now, most people get it in a single day.
