Google Wave Nominations
« on: January 01, 2010, 07:29:17 PM »
The first 8 people to comment on this post (using the comment field at the bottom) will be nominated for Google Wave.

Server Back Online

I have 23 of these nominations (they gave me extra for some reason), and I don't have anyone to give them to. I figured this would be a good way to give them out.

Just say in your comment: "I Want Google Wave!" (and include anything else you want to say after that).

You will need to include your email address in the comment form, but not in the comment itself. Read the post for other rules and information.

Am I using this as a promotional tool? I would be a lie of I said "No", but I honestly do just want to get rid of some of these nominations. I have no real use for them at this time.
I don't see any reason why it should be a concern, as it does not exactly violate ComputerHope's internal rules since I am not redirecting technical support.

This image makes the process more complicated than it sounds!

Server is now back online. PUD arrived this afternoon and managed to fix the issue (I could have told them what was wrong had they just knocked on the door before preceding to the fiber box, oh well.)

May I ask how you got involved or anyone gets involved like you did?

How did Google you give the nominations to give out? Do you work for them? LOL

Haha, I kind of wish I worked for them!  :D

I received an invitation (what you get after a nomination). By standard, they give you a few invites -- why would you use it if you had no one to use it with?
So, they gave me 25 of them.
Then they gave me ten more, thinking I would do something with them.

As it turns out, I don't have a lot of people that I need to collaborate with (or want to...). I figured that I might as well get rid of it this way.

Contest is still going, by the way... comment, people! Bleeding edge of technology!
