Wave Gadgets
With the advent of Google Wave, gadgets can now have persistent storage and multi-user capabilities and better state management. Gadgets using Google Wave in this way are simply known as 'Wave Gadgets'. For instance, a game that is written using a Google Gadget can use Google Wave technology to record a list of users and high scores without having to worry about how to permanently store the scores on a hosted server. The use of Google Wave gives the gadget multi-user and permanent storage capabilities. For example, scores can be stored in a Google Wave which is hosted permanently by Google at no cost to the user.

“Modern man, if he dared to be articulate about his concept of heaven, would describe a vision which would look like the biggest department store in the world, showing new things and gadgets, and himself having plenty of money with which to buy them. He would wander around open-mouthed in this heaven of gadgets and commodities, provided only that there were ever more and newer things to buy, and perhaps that his neighbors were just a little less privileged than he.”
—Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
