When Google asked what you liked and disliked about their new real-time communication application, you unquestionably said that you wanted extra invites to share with friends and family. Problem solved.

Now, Google decided to play Santa with Wave invites. It has just doled out significantly additional invites to existing users.

In conjunction with the invite rollout, Google is also hinting that they'll shortly reach the one million user mark. The title of their post suggestively point out that "a million stamps" have been licked, which we take to mean that they've now opened up Google Wave to a million users.

While invites may be extra readily available, be forewarned: Google is still not ready to graduate the service from preview phase to beta phase. Still, we're excited that extra of you can get in on the shared experience that is Google Wave.
