Google Buzz

Google Buzz now embedded in Gmail:

Today, we’re launching Google Buzz, a new way to start conversations about the things you find interesting and share updates, photos, videos and more. Buzz is built right into Gmail, so there’s nothing to set up — you’re automatically following the people you email and chat with the most.

If you’re new about Google Buzz, here’s what it’s all about:

Google Buzz is a social integration and messaging tool by Google, designed to integrate into the company’s web-based email program, Gmail. Shared links and messages show up in the user’s inbox. Buzz focuses on integrating photos, videos, and links as part of the “conversations” aspects of Gmail like conversation threading.

Buzz allows users to choose to share publicly with the world or privately to a small group of friends each time they post. Picasa, Flickr, Google Reader, YouTube, Blogger, and Twitter are currently integrated. The creation of Buzz was seen by industry analysts as an attempt by Google to compete with social networking websites like Facebook. Buzz also includes several interface and interaction elements from other Google products (e.g. Google Reader) such as the ability to like a post.

In a word, Google Buzz is a Google Facebook.

Wether it’s able to compete with Facebook or just another Google’s product failure remain to be seen.

    Google Buzz becomes a very attractive option. Having features integrated. How to promote a way of telling so popular with users? Facebook is a very tough competition at this time.

    You should be getting the update over the next couple days. If you have an android based phone or an iPhone you can point your browser to buzz.google.com and try out the mobile version while you wait.
