Google Buzz

[sewforlife]

What do you think about?
anyone else agree that it's like facebook (with the liking comments/statuses)/twitter (following people)/gmail (all your email) put together?

[tclme elmo]

yes it's mini facebook. its fine, I guess.

[soobsession]

It's weird.

I personally don't like the fact that they always have to automatically post your status... I mean, you can just look at the person's status on your chat list if you wanted to.

It's an easy way to spam people too.

I don't use either Facebook or Twitter, but Buzz's presence in Gmail, which is already my premiere method of contacting people, means that I'm using it a little.

They do need to give us more privacy settings though

I don't like how you get an email notification whenever someone posts something. Especially when you can see how many new comments you have on the buzz thing underneath ur inbox.

I agree with that...it totally spams up your inbox

[googlyfrog]

Yeah. I mean, you can just check the little thing. It's like having another inbox, but they still send you the notifications.

[tclme elmo]

actually not anymore for me. i created a filter. mua! totally skips the inbox and goes into a label. (as you know, i never delete any emails)

just another extra gadget

Oh yeah, I should've known they would add Buzz to the filtering options.
