The release of Google Buzz has certainly spurred the imagination of everybody. The product itself takes the best of many services and rolls it into one.
In very general terms we can define Google Buzz as a social experience that resides within your current Gmail account.
Upon launching Google Buzz you will be greeted with a stream of updates that highlight the activity of existing friends. Please keep in mind the expression “existing friends”, for it is the one concept that might give this service (if not an edge) a chance to make it. Google Buzz works within Gmail. And by now, everybody has a Gmail account. It is not a matter of being hip, just a matter of usefulness. The obvious inference of everybody being there is that everybody is a Google Buzz user in potency. And having such a colossal database almost by default simply goes into guaranteeing a certain share of success to begin with.
Functionalities like recommending new items based on the ones that your friends like have been implemented, and something that is really interesting is that an effort will be made to keep everything relevant. That is, the system will only display updates that have a certain poignancy. Updates such as “lol!” will be hid from the stream. Reducing the noise within the Social Web is a necessity in these days. After all, everybody is there. And a sizable amount of people are not really diligent. Rather, they have nothing better to do than post images of the new dishwasher they have bought and so on. Any attempt at redressing that is welcome. And if it is provided as part of a package that capitalizes on a phenomenally large and loyal userbase, then the results are something to keep your eyes on.
