Earlier today, Google announced its push into social networking with Google Buzz which will allow users to share status updates, photos, and videos in a new Gmail tab called Google Buzz. Android and iPhone users can expect to use Buzz through a web-based application that will allow real-time updates that will update to your Google Buzz feed that can show up on a new version of Google’s mobile maps. Google says that about 1% of current users can expect to see it pop-up for them (not me
)and the rest will just have to wait over the week. There’s a video after the jump that explains the wonderful uses of Google Buzz.
I rarely use twitter as it is, but I’ll admit to checking my Gmail account every 10 minutes so maybe I could see myself using this. Maybe not. Maybe if I had more friends.
Will you be my friend?
