Okay, so Google Buzz. Aside from privacy issues (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35351343/ns/technology_and_science-tech_and_gadgets/), so far it's been working fine for me.

Are you using Buzz?

I've been testing Buzz for a few months. I much prefer it to facebook and twitter. It has the essential feature of facebook and twitter: broadcasting info about my life to my friends and vice-versa. It is more convenient being integrated with gmail. It can figure out who my friends are based on who I email. It's structured around individual conversations rather than a linear stream of posts. It doesn't have annoying apps or friend requests. Genius.

I just started Buzz-ing...

Seems pretty good.

They've got the huge Gmail advantage.
Guess we'll see if this takes off...

(would like to see the end of MySpace and Twitter - maybe this will help?)
