Google Buzz has arrived: It’s Googles answer to social media but will it work?

Google Buzz was just announced today. It’s basically Google’s answer to social media.

Google Buzz will allow you to “Share updates, photos, videos, and more” and “start conversations about the things you find interesting”

Here’s a video of Buzz in action.

So the billion dollar question is will it work?

Will Google Buzz make people spend more time on Google products & Google Sites? And will that traffic come from users of Myspace, Facebook & Twitter?

Only time will tell but considering the massive Gmail user base Google has their sure to be off to a flying start already!

Do you think Google Buzz will be a success?

  1. Google Buzz?

    Be interesting to see the greater effect this has Mark. With Google ‘Friend Connect’ plus Twitter, Facebook and a raft of other platforms, there’s only so many hours in the day to stay on top of social media.

    Which ones to choose to develop is a growing conundrum.
