Google has announced a new centralised collaboration tool called Google Wave that mashes together emails, instant messaging and wiki style communication into one service that will be open sourced and run on its own protocols.
Google's approach to privacy is a decade behind Microsoft, the Redmond software giant's chief privacy strategist told ZDNet.com.au on Thursday in a video interview.

There are no privacy issues with Google Street View, a Maps-based project that offers 360-degree panoramic views of various streets in cities around the US, according to Google Australia's head of engineering.
Google Australia opened its doors to the media recently in Sydney. We take a peek at what's inside.
Turns out that the "developer preview" of Google's latest creation, Google Wave, is not as open as one would expect, with the preview only being open to attendees of Google's I/O conference but there is another way to see it in action. And forget wanting to use IE6 with it.
It appears that despite the massive amount of hype surrounding Google, the company is not immune from the bad marketing video plague that has troubled the best of corporate giants.
I've been puttering around in Google Wave for the best part of a week now, and I understand it, but I have no idea in hell what I'm supposed to be using it for.
Sydney developer Lars Rasmussen has done it again. Check out the first screenshots of Wave, Google's new centralised collaboration tool that mashes together emails, instant messaging and wiki-style communication into one open-sourced service.

At the Google developer day in Sydney last week, Google Australia's head of engineering Lars Rasmussen denied that privacy was an issue when it came to Google Street View because, he said, the images are all taken in "public areas".
Developers make good stress testers, and the initial Wave service has had a lot of testing in the last few months. We take a ride on the wave, which should be opening to a wider beta program at the end of September.
