It wasn’t long after the Feb. 9, 2010 announcement and launch of Google’s new social messaging service, Buzz, that people turned around with complaints. But, Google’s been very quick to resolve and clarify the privacy issues that caused many (myself included) to quickly turn off Buzz from their Gmail accounts. I’m still a little weirded out, and I can’t think of a use Buzz offers that isn’t satisfied by other existing networks like Twitter, but I’m no longer 100% turned off to the idea of Buzz. With the inherent base Buzz has being integrated to Gmail it will likely give other social messaging sites competition, and may be good to get in and become knowledgeable starting from square one.
