Google Buzz which was just launched is a direct attack on the fast spreading popularity of facebook. While trying to create a wave through the Google wave, earlier I feel Google failed in attracting the layman. It was for one way ahead of its times and most importantly was not fully ready for the masses..
A concept car is best to be shown in those auto shows only.. The daily on road usage of the same may not be as practical unless its not a gradual change towards the concept.. Google Buzz is the gradual change towards the concept..
While trying not to be left behind in the social networking race, Google tried Orkut which failed in most part of the world. It purchased Dodgeball & Zingku (for mobile) which seems to be base for the buzz!
A company which started and swore to be a web company threw some surprises and entered the Mobile handset market with Nexus One, Soon it will have its OS based on the "rapidly becoming popular" browser Chrome which is eating away the Internet Explorer share and also that of Firefox (am pleading guilty too).. Apple & (what was the other one hah!) Microsoft, are you listening..
Google has shown some innovative customer focus and actually listened to the customer while designing every small product in its factory. While competing with giants, it just used the innovative design and some clever marketing to grab not just the focus, but also the customers themselves.
Well, buzz is just one of the small things to play while much bigger toys are still being designed in its workshop..
