Google Buzz
Today Google lunched Google Buzz, and some of the internet power houses are not happy. Google Buzz is simply Facebook and Twitter in your Gmail. With Google buzz you do your microblogging (tweeting) and picture sharing (Facebook) right from inside your Gmail. According to TechCrunch these are the words from Microsoft
“Busy people don’t want another social network, what they want is the convenience of aggregation. We’ve done that. Hotmail customers have benefitted from Microsoft working with Flickr, Facebook, Twitter and 75 other partners since 2008.”
Yahoo also answered with a “humorous email” depicting Google as a copycat and a late comer.
We all know by now that Google has shown over time that they can do anything that Yahoo does better. Search, email, to mention a few. Google has not being very successful with social networking in the past, so we should consider this another shot.
Both Facebook and Twitter are yet to make any comments about this move by Google, in my little opinion they are the most concern here.
Buzz is only available for Android 2.0+, But, anyhow, it’s good to transform Gmail into a social network, blog.ytechcity.com
I really dont like Buzz in my Gmail… Like Microsoft said what the world news is some aggregator…
Hi, Everything dynamic and very positively!
