Thanks to everyone who requested a Wave invitation. Invitations have been submitted for everyone who requested one as of the time of this writing. As mentioned previously, you now need to wait for Google to act on the invitations. Keep an eye on your inbox and your spam box, and hopefully Google will send them out within the next couple of days. If you get yours, hop on over to the 40Tech Public Wave, and try out Wave.

12/3/09 update: We’ve hit the 48 hour mark. We’ll get a post up tomorrow, but everyone from Ashish through Randall will be getting an invite. Thanks for posting!
We previously wrote about how to organize the Google Wave sidebar with tags, and we have at least a couple of additional Wave-related posts coming soon. These posts probably don’t interest you, though, if you’re not using Wave. Wave invitations were once very hard to get, but have become more common now. We’d like to do our part by offering 20 invitations. Read on for how to get one, so that you can get in on the fun.
We’ve recently started using Google Wave here at 40Tech, and have found it be extremely useful, especially for site-related tasks. In fact, we wrote our first collaborative post using Wave recently. As useful as Wave can be, it can also be overwhelming. Once you’ve followed a few waves, your Inbox can be overflowing, making it very difficult to find what you want. How to tame this? For starters, you can organize waves into folders. But what if you want to organize waves by tag? Tags have some advantages over folders, including the fact that a wave can only belong to one folder, but a wave can possess multiple tags. Even if you tag your waves, however, there doesn’t appear to be a way to make your tags easily selectable in the sidebar. It might not be built into Wave’s UI, but there is in fact a way to get your tags into the sidebar. Read on for how to do it.
