Google has just launched Google buzz within their free email service Gmail (you need a gmail account) , if you’re an avid Gmail user look out for this new icon on the left.
Google Buzz Icon
By Google adding Google Buzz social networking feature it will challenge the likes of Twitter and Facebook who do you think will come up on TOP (tell me below) ? Google buzz can also be used on mobile phones like the iPhone where you can geo tag posts with your location. I’m sure it will make short messaging sites like twitter go redundant.
Have you come across the Twitter live feeds within the front page of Google results.. See below:

Google is testing live feeds around the world, I just wonder when they are making it a permanent feature, but I’m guessing they are tracking results passed to twitter from the Google search page before they switch it to show Google Buzz results on the front page of Google.
Google buzz does not have any SEO value as yet! But I’m sure many people will think of ways to create spam accounts and add thousands of people on autopilot like they do on twitter and spam the hell out of all Google buzz users.
I have already started to use this and it could be as addictive as twitter once was to me. It’s amazing you can upload images, movies all within one screen for people to comment about, instead of jumping from one page to another as we all do in twitter when someone posts an image link or YouTube link.
Surprisingly the first day I clicked the Google Buzz icon in my gmail people were already waiting to follow me.
So I suggest you give it a go and tell me what you think below..
I hav been trying Google Buzz and am not really sure how much I like it yet.
