Wave Addon for Firefox

Wave Addon for Firefox

Hi people  ! I am back after a small break. I was away from blogging and social networking for a couple of weeks and have more than 1000 unread items in google reader. So, it will take some time for me to reach your blogs and read your latest posts.  Now, the real deal of the post.

Google Wave Notifier extension for firefox works like the gmail notifier plugin. Enter  your wave login details, and  you will be notified whenever there is a new Wave in your inbox.  Simple !

Known Issues:

“Cookies Blocked” issue: If third-party cookies are blocked for all sites, an exception will have to be added for wave.google.com.

This is done by going to Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Firefox will: Use custom settings for history -> Exceptions -> wave.google.com -> Allow.

This extension will work only with wave.google.com accounts, and not with sandbox accounts. It has been tested using Windows XP, Vista, 7, Ubuntu, and OS X.

The most interesting part about this plugin is that, support is given through a wave !!! So, here is someone who found another use for Google Wave.  Product Support, or say, Customer Service ?

Download the plugin from here

Hi Dinu,
Welcome back.

I just installed the plugin yesterday. I’m at the moment not sure if I trust it. At the moment the plugin says 3 unread, and the inbox has 6. But when I freshed the inbox it also only showed 3. So the plugin is the best guess at the moment.

Yes, it is a basic question .. the best thing to do is go to wave.google.com and do some reading, and watch their loooong video
