Google Wave Help Because waves happen in real-time , each participant can see any changes you make to a wave, as you make them. This includes typing -- if another participant is looking at a wave as you're editing, he or she will see your keystrokes . It is not possible to disable live typing , so keep this in mind before you type anything you might not want others to see !
