Google Wavehttps://wave.google.com/wave/
Blip: Even smaller than a Wavelet,
a Blip is a single, individual message. It’s like a single line of an IM conversation. Jeff’s response to me is a blip.
Terminology
Modified from Google Wave: A Complete Guidehttp://mashable.com/2009/05/28/google-wave-guide/
Wave: Refers to a specific threaded conversation. It can include just one person, or it can include a group of users or robots. It represents the entire conversation.
Wavelet: • A threaded conversation, but
only a subset of a larger conversation (or a wave). It’s like a single IM conversation
• For example the conversation between two people is the wavelet, see orange box.
Document: A document actually refers to the
content within a blip. Refers to the actual characters, words, and files associated with a blip.

Note: a third person has been added to the conversation. Within the overall wave we now have two wavelets• The conversation between the
first two individuals makes a wavelet
• The conversation between all three individuals is another wavelet
Extension: An extension is a mini-application that works within a wave.. There are two
main types of extensions: Gadgets and Robots
Gadgets: A gadget is an application users can participate with. A good comparison
would be iGoogle gadgets or Facebook applications.
Robots: An automated participant within a wave. They can talk with users and interact
with waves. They can provide information from outside sources or can check content within a wave and perform actions based on them.
Embeded Wave: An embeded wave is a way to take a Google Wave and the conversation
within it and place it on your website.
