I would like to see an option for decompressing threads within a wave to hide old information but not delete it. this would greatly help organization I believe.

You make a great point. One of the reasons. I am not on Wave alot and some days get mad at it is because people get stupid in a wave. My friend and me were playing with the hang man bot. Next thing I new. There were 75 new replies while I had been doing an assignment. Then I had to scroll down just to reply. I wish only five would show..

I know there was something like this in Gmail..

Hmm...

That's very practical suggestions that will come in handy - hopefully they are building this feature already - its almost a necessity!

I agree with this suggestion too. At times I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the content of a wave and filtering out what is important and what isn't to get updated on. I suppose it's important for the wave "owner" to moderate and prune down to help the wave maintain some organization as it grows. It's a bit overwhelming at times...
