I know for a fact that Google Buzz and Google Wave are two different services. But we can’t discount the fact that their functions are almost similar. So let me ask you this question, since Google Buzz was released, are you still using Google Wave? If yes, then you’d be glad to know that Google has just activated email notification for Google Wave.
Google Wave’s notification works just like all the other Google notification systems – Buzz, Email Alerts for specific search results and others. It sends you email alerts whenever a wave that you are participating in gets an update or whenever a new Wave has been created by your Google Wave contacts.
Google has now brought this possibility one step closer with Wave email notifications. According to The Google Wave Blog, all Wave users should now see the “Notifications” option in their Inbox dropdown menu. Once selecting it, you will be presented with the following choices:
Google recommends the “Immediately” setting so that you never miss out on a wave. Google will only send you a single email between each time you actually visit the wave. Google does this to ensure that you aren’t spammed with an email for every single update that takes place.
