I think the appropriate term was “tried”, but actually and truly using it would be a stretch. Since the concept was so different to how muggles/normies/morons are used to transferring small bits of text back and forth, it never caught on outside of the tech-enthusiast sphere. There were some nifty things there, as I recall. But it was more of an AJAX power trip than a truly revolutionary tool for the masses. Certainly no replacement for email, specially since it was Google exclusive, and not functional on all platforms, you know, unlike email.

Cool, but not useful. Etherpad is far more usable and easier for most people to “get”. Does the job that Wave never could, if you ask me.
