Hi Randy, Great to have a chance to talk to you earlier this month.  As promised here is the Wave information: - A paper written by Educause Learning Initiative about Wave and its potential for Education to help get you started: http://net.educause.edu/ir/library/pdf/ELI7055.pdf - I've enabled your Google Apps domain (ocde.us ) to use Wave, so now anyone who has an account can access Wave at http://wave.google.com/a/ocde.us/ - CCed are a few additional folks from the Google Education team who can answer additional questions you might have about the OCDE using Google Apps and Wave. I hope that's a good start.  After you've had a chance to get started with Wave, let me know and we can set up additional time to talk if that would be useful. Thanks! Greg
