Google Buzz: Friend or foe?
How to define Google Buzz? Basically it’s a social networking tool which allows for the sharing of links, pictures, videos. Hey, doesn’t that sound like Facebook or Twitter? Right now, in all the reviews -that’s what everyone is trying to determine.
Sadly, I haven’t gotten a chance to check out Google Buzz. I’ll do a follow up post with my overall assessment – but here’s some interesting feedback on the scoop so far this week. Overall, it looks like Google’s doing a good job of turning people’s heads.
