Loving that you've broken the model and made people think about ownership versus sharing, and in particular the location of your information. I expect this to really start a sea change in the way people think about data and information. Good work fella, you're blazing a path that I'm happy to drive along!

Regarding Google's wave I agree with the post and comments. However, the first point that came to my mind (honestly I have not thought a lot about wave yet so maybe it is a silly thing) was how the transition from pre-wave to post-wave will be for consumers. Let me explain it, I believe that the concept is quite complex for the average consumer (I think about my father, 65yo, who uses email and a bit of IM or even my wife who is closer to an average user) ... how will non-wave users interact or experience wave from the "outside"? .. I am curious to know... I also believe that given that wave is broser based it will provide a competitive advantage to chrome ... on top of the obvious implicatons for Microsoft OS and its apps suite... Gustav, we need to have a coffee and brainstorm as last time we saw each other! :-) Congratulations for the blog by the way! / Alex Hi!, the spotify demo rocks! pretty cool, I really like the service on the web and the side loading feature for mobile I believe it is key from a consumer perspective so, well done!

That it is one central object that everyone is working with at the same time. I don’t think I’ve seen any comment about that at all...

This is the future. I only have two questions, who do I have to kill to become a beta tester :) and when will it hit the market. But actually I'm not suprised, I have been a premium customer since October and there are very few things that gives you so much value for the 99SEK per moth. /Johan Im soo convinced that this will kick itunes butt!
