Google Buzz

Google Buzz is the newest Google product that exists. It can easily be summed up by saying it’s the same as Twitter — but integrated with your Gmail inbox, and a couple extra built-in features that you can see in this video.

The question isn’t whether Google’s feature is good or not, but rather if it’s going to take off quickly? Twitter has become pretty much the status quo as far as real-time updates go. Even if it’s connected to Gmail and is pre-populated with your friends out of the box, it’s not going to be easy for Google to compete with Twitter.

hot-red-google-logo Google er netop begyndt at rulle sin sociale service Buzz ud til Gmail brugere. I bund og grund er Buzz en aggregator, som samler ens kontaktpersoners sociale strems i Gmail. Denne type integration imellem webmail og sociale services er allerede set i Windows Live, som introducerede en lignende service i forbindelse med Wave 3.

Jeg er ikke den store Gmail bruger længere, men en af de ting jeg godt kunne lide ved Gmail var, at den ikke var integreret med en masse services. Den rene mail komponent var efter min mening en af de gode ting ved Gmail, men det er ved at være slut nu.

Jeg har ikke selv fået adgang til Buzz, så jeg ved ikke om det bliver en rodet affære, men umiddelbart ser servicen relativt interessant ud. Jeg tvivler dog lidt på at jeg vender tilbage til Gmail for alvor.
