Google has now introduced a new service called Google Buzz. This a new feature through which you can share your updates, videos and photos. This service is built in Gmail which already has 176 million users according to sources. The features of Buzz will also be available on Android operating system based phones and also in iPhone, with the facility of real-time updates.
Google also hopes to merge with the most frequently visited sites like Twitter, Picasa, Flickr, Google Reader and YouTube so that the users can stay connected to everyone through a single browser window.
If you have a Gmail account there you can see Buzz has a built-in group of friends which are automatically selected including the people that the user communicates with the most frequently through Gmail and Google Talk.
Google Buzz will be available as Web application in mobile, allowing the user to provide status updates by voice and geotagging their posts. Updates that are location based can be read while one is using Google Mobile Maps.
According Google executives said Buzz would help to solve the problem of information overload, as Google would apply its algorithms to help people find the information that is most relevant to them.
Today there are millions of users who are using Facebook, Orkut, and Twitter. Therefore Google Buzz will have to compete with such sites.
