Go in Google Wave

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 20:56 GMT

Google wave is the new social network released by (guess who?) Google. It's still quite premature and there are very few invitations sent, so the amount of users of this network is very limited.

Google wave has a big potential for many purposes, but we are here to talk about go.

In this picture you'll see it is actually possible to load an SGF viewer. Only viewer, there is no way you can actually play with it. But it's the first solution for Go players in Wave...

Updated: LOL, I managed to get a board working, it's now playable. It's playable but has a couple of bugs, which I don't know how to solve...
