Google Buzz announced - Polidicks

[img]http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/4/2010/02/500x_gbuzznew.jpg[/img] [quote]Buzz's five key features include: • Automatic friends lists (friends are added automatically who you have emailed on Gmail) • "Rich fast sharing" combines sources like Picasa and Twitter into a single feed, and it includes full-sized photo browsing • Public and private sharing (swap between family and friends) • Inbox integration (instead of emailing you with updates, like Facebook might, Buzz features emails that update dynamically with all Buzz thread content, like the photo viewer we mentioned above) • "Recommended Buzz" puts friend-of-friend content into your stream, even if you're not acquainted. Recommendations learn over time with your feedback. Google Buzz is available today, and it should creep up as a new tab in Gmail any minute.

Look shit.

Great now I can follow every single person in the world's every movement, easier!

Yay, customizable and sensationalist bullshit!

Is this like a Google version of Twitter?

[quote]Automatic friends lists (friends are added automatically who you have emailed on Gmail)[/quote] Hopefully this does not also add everyone that emails you. I don't think I'd like being friends with [noparse]InSTantSatisfctionPilllllzz@TotallyLegitSite.ru[/noparse].

Wait.. does Facebook not do all of this?

Interesting. It's funny to think it all started from a search engine.

lovely

Oh, it's not a vibrator.

[QUOTE=TH89;20127143]Oh, it's not a vibrator.[/QUOTE] Not yet.

Whoho! Generic Google Replacement Product For Easily Available Services Number 156! I can hardly wait!

Sounds like some kind of narcotic

I'll use it, cuz im a google slave

I hate automatic friend lists. I do business & personal with the same account, and my friend list has all these past clients that I'm no longer in touch with. It's so weird & creepy.

I love it

Check out yahoo buzz, huge conservative shithole. Here's some quotes: [quote]All other issues aside,...I felt a lot safer with G.W. as President. At least with him you knew he put the U.S. first.[/quote] [quote]Bush on a bad day is better than the lying B.i.t.c.h.Boy Kenyan AND HIS BAND OF LIMPWRISTED , QUEER APOLOGISTIC , FETAL MURDERING , A.S.S. TAXING , CONDESCENDING , GHETTO MONKEY LOVING , NO GOVERNING A.S.S DEMOCRAT CRONIES ON THE VERY BEST DAY OF THIER PATHETIC LIVES !!!!!!!!!![/quote] [quote]Yessiree, we miss you President Bush. The Liberal Leftwing Media spent years trashing your presidency in order to get Obama elected. Now look at the sorry mess that the state run media has created in America.[/quote] [quote] The leftwing liberal looneys don't even know why they are supposed to hate Bush; they have been spoon fed that crap for years by the liberal media. The democratic controlled congress for the last three years is what has destroyed our economy. Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Nancy Pelosi, Dingy Harry and Hussein Obama can take the credit for that mess that they continue to bury us with.[/quote] [url]http://buzz.yahoo.com/article/1:limelife358:d0f5664784ec82efa15273a97e65b3c0/George-W-Bush-Billboard-Miss-Me-Yet;_ylt=AqrfRS6K8qMkmIZbXYirHEJ1fNdF[/url] Seriously it's so sad.

Brings a whole new meaning to what's the buzz today?

This seems extremely redundant

What? Twitter INSIDE mail. NONSENSE.

[QUOTE=Douchebags;20131510]Brings a whole new meaning to what's the buzz today?[/QUOTE] Hmm, could that be the origin of it's naming? I'd like to see more Facepunchers investigating this matter.

So this is like a tweeting vs buzzing contest? Or a tweet is the equivalent of a buzz? I gotta admit, it has a very nice ring to it.

So I'm guessing this will automatically sync with Android devices?

It looks like another part of someone's life that's ran on google's servers.

Isn't this pretty much like Facebook?

When the title said Buzz, I though of a Google Cola.

Why do social networking sites exist?

[QUOTE=Jzzb;20135800]Why do social networking sites exist?[/QUOTE] So friends can talk while on computer or talk with distant friends?

[QUOTE=johanz;20136071]So friends can talk while on computer or talk with distant friends?[/QUOTE] because email and IM totally don't let you do that
