All I needed to make wave useful was an email notification whenever a wave I was following was updated.

At first, I thought that, too.
But having seen the way wave works[1], plus the more real-time nature of Waving, I would actually think that instant messaging notifications would align more closely with Wave's goals. One gets XMPP (Jabber) notification for free, and I would bet a Euro that wiring an XMPP server to AIM or (other) is not overwhelmingly hard.
