Users who are familiar with Google Wave may no longer be out of the loop about waves. Yes, Google recently turned on email notifications permitting users to receive alerts about new as well as updated waves right in their inbox. Moreover all this takes is the simple use of the Inbox dropdown menu.
Users can select the frequency of their email updates from the notification menu. Wavers who might be infrequent on Google Wave are recommended the ‘immediately’ setting by the company. The official Google Wave blog shares that this setting can be altered at any given time.
On being added to a new wave or though the wave users are on changes, Google will send an email to the user. The alert will include a short summary of the text and links that will take users straight to their updated waves. As waves ostensibly change a lot, users will receive only one notification about a changed wave. That’s until users have logged in to have a look at it, and waves that might be open by the users won’t trigger updates.
Users can also help friends and family turn on notifications specially those who may not be logging in often. Though the feature is still being refined they can still get updates on their Google Wave account though they keep to checking their email inbox.
The email notification attribute is still a work in progress and might be a little buggy. While at times the email snippet doesn’t show all participants on the wave, under certain conditions users may also get an update about a wave though they were the last person to change it. To modify the notification setting, users might have to return to the menu where they turned it on.
While these issues are predictable to be resolved over the next few weeks, email notifications in Wave can be tested now.
