"Borrowing a page from the Twitter handbook, Google Wave has just introduced the concept of \u201Cfollowing\u201D and \u201Cunfollowing.\u201D  The feature applies to public Waves, which, as the name suggests, are Waves that anyone can see.\nHere\u2019s how it works according to Google: \u201CWhen you see a public wave that you would like to get updates on, you can chose to follow it by hitting the follow button in the wave panel toolbar. You can remove these waves from your inbox by hitting the \"archive\" button, but when there is an update they will pop back in. You can switch between following and unfollowing a wave as much and as often as you like.\u201DInformation overload has been one of the early criticisms of Google Wave, so this move makes sense as the team behind it continues to evolve the product.  Meanwhile, the potential utility of following Public Waves is intriguing, not completely dissimilar from the idea of following a List on Twitter - find public Waves that you're interested in, follow them, and get updates as they happen.  \nGoogle hints that there's more to come with the follow concept.  \"Following is the first step towards a set of new tools for managing waves in your inbox ... We're also thinking of expanding the following concept to let you follow people, groups, and searches,\" they write.  \nAre you using Wave yet?
