…but what is the point in us all investing time in something that will be big…

I think this is very interesting.

In my particular situation, every member of my core dev team is on Wave, and we are gradually getting more people from other teams onboard. So, for us, the time is already here. If not for our already investing time in experimenting with Wave, we probably wouldn’t be trying to get our partners on the platform.

We currently use Wave, primarily, for recording meeting agendas. During the meeting, people take one agenda item of discussion and put it in a new “blip.” Others comment on it, and then we all record action items in the Wave.

This not only serves as a recording of meeting minutes, but as a source of accountability. If you say you’re going to do something, it’s written in the wave, in plain sight, and you’d better either a) do it, or b) explain why you chose not to do it.
