I'm having a hard time imagining D&D as fun when it's online, unless you do it by skype or something. But I've never tried anything other than locally with my friends so I wouldn't know.
I've done both locally, and the Google Wave thing, and tried and IRC game once too.
IRC games are no fun. Simple chat rooms are no fun - but the beauty of Google Wave is it's not just a simple chat room. File sharing is much easier and more robust, private conversations are easier to manage, and the whole thing works about as well as a MMO would, if MMO games were populated by proper roleplaying people.
I think I'd have trouble committing to being online at a regular time, unfortunately. I involve myself in too much already, so my schedule is always up in the air. The only day I am almost never busy is Sunday, but it's probably best to wait until we have three more players to sort out those details.
I really liked a board game called Admirals from Parker Brothers, in the 80's. Anyone played it? It was cruel sometimes. Too bad they ceased producing it.
