I found one for Firefox, which is a small statusbar icon and doesn’t really attract my attention, and there’s one for Chrome (which I don’t use). I’d rather have something for my desktop (Gnome-panel-gadget or Gnome-Do-plugin) that shouts ” YOU HAVE A WAVE” at me, but I haven’t found anything yet. What I did find is another solution; The XMPP-bot “wave-xmpp@appspot.com”. If you add this bot into a Wave and press subscribe you’ll receive an instant message from Google Talk when someone adds something to the wave. Since GTalk messages are received on my Nokia N900 I know there’s wave activity anywhere I am, and only from the Waves I’ve subscribed to. Check out the XMPP-Lite page
