I gave Buzz a try and yes it does have the feel of twitter but looks like it could shape its self better – Ive always had a listing on Local business center but have never felt that the results were what thery should be with lots of spam sites listing so that your business falls to the back – i think that the results should pay closer attention to the web search results.

I really wish Google would focus on search! They are trying to “be” too much, focus on what they know and are good at.

Hi there Barry!
thanks for the mention.

Great post. Google has certainly been rolling out some interesting products as of late.

Buzz is impressive. Like Per (above) I am not a tweeter, but Google Buzz appeals to me.
So the question is, do we leave the internet to Google? There is convenience for sure in everything being under Google. But should we give them that power?

I don’t know.

As far as the LBC, I definitely agree that Google Local has been a rocky ride so far. Google no doubt needs time to develop a consistent approach to local ranking and fine tune it. Unfortunately it seems to me that, while it is trying to find its way, small businesses are suffering because of its constantly changing and unclear system.

I have been trying out this new Google Buzz and it is definitely very similar to Twitter. What’s even better is that you can actually connect your Twitter account to it. I’ve never been a fan of Twitter. I find opening too many sites and maintaining too many accounts annoying. If Google pulls this off, I might just get on the bandwagon. Everything under one account. =D
