Colayer a Swiss-IndianIndian reviewsIndian reviews (Pune) based company claims they have already implemented Google WaveGoogle WaveGoogle Wave alike concept for their clients. Its a product based company, developing a platform to build virtual contextualized workplaces for companies, organizations and networks of professionals. As per the Colayer source they are using this concept for a decade.



The product is called Colayar, this product uses HTTP protocol for the communication. The data transfer is done on a context i.e as soon as the person types something on a window the other person can view the content live b’coz they are on same context.

Well i had a hand on the this product, my first impression was WOWWoW reviewsWoW reviews !! .. it was something new for me. Multiple users can work on same content simultaneously like we do in a conference chat.

But there was a difference between the conference chat and Colayar Reception, people can edit the same peace of content simultaneously and you can see who is typing what, word to word.
Everything was happening in real time. I tried uploading a pic in to the conversation … awesome it got uploaded at a great speed and started appearing on the screen as a thumbnail
(have a look on the screen shot below…)

Colayer source claims, at a time 50 people can work simultaneously on a context and its more matured compared to Google Wave. As off now it would be too early for me to comment on this, since i dint had a hand on WaveWave reviewsWave reviews yet. There are many more thinks in Colayer product to be explored. Soon you can expect some interesting articles on Colayer and Google Wave on TechGearz.

And hope in near future you may find a healthy competition between these two products.

Only couple of questions that come in my mind…

1) Is Colayer an Open Source Product, can anyone modify and implement Colayer Product like GoogleGoogleGoogle wave claims to be ??

2) Can Colayer and Google Wave communicate with each other ?? (…ya i know it would be to early to ask this question but still exited to know )

hope by the next article we will have answer for the same :)

    Google Wave will not be entirely open source, but just parts of it - and the same will be true for the next Colayer version 3.0: most of the source code of Colayer 3.0 will be open source. And we are happy to join Google in some areas - wherever it makes sense, we will use and contribute to the open source projects of Google Wave.

    We plan to integrate Google Wave into Colayer - We aim to be 'Wave for Enterprises ... and more' - but for final comments about this, we will have to wait until after the official launch of Google Wave -
