What’s The Buzz All About

Anyone out there using Google Buzz? Not me, not yet at least. It’s kind of a hard sell right now. After all, does Buzz really do anything that you can’t already do with Twitter or Facebook? Well, you can use it with your email, I guess. That’s not really that exciting or really something I needed anyway, since I use the Mail application instead of checking online. So why is Google Buzz something we should care about?

Because it is Google continually moving us closer to just having one place to go. Think about all the different applications and websites you check over the course of a day. You’ve got to keep track of the Twitter users you follow. You’ve got to check up for Facebook notifications, and maybe do some chatting there. Maybe do some chatting on AIM instead. You have to check your email. You’ve probably got some other favorite websites too.

Google was founded on the idea that people need help sorting through the countless number of websites out there. Now it wants to move everything into one place. They’ve already got your email, your contacts, your videos, your RSS feeds, your bookmarks, where you are and where you want to go, your calendar,your chats, your documents, your blog, your photos and more, so Google naturally had to expand into social networking.

I think there vision of the future is pretty simple, you open up Chrome and check your Google. From there you can see your contacts’ statuses, read your emails, check your RSS feed, chat, blog, watch videos, work on your calendar, whatever. Instead of managing a bunch of accounts on a bunch of websites, you’ll have one, standardized place to live your whole digital life.

It’s kind of scary, you know, from a security point of view. That’s a lot of intimate information to trust one corporation with. But for the majority of people, I think it will be a more streamlined and convenient approach to what they want from the Internet. Of course, we still have to wait for Twitter and Facebook to die before we can get there. And that’s going to take a while. After all, MySpace is still around.
