What's the Buzz about NEW Google Buzz?

I know, here's another social media network. How many could you possible join or have time posting too? Right? Well, that is true but we are talking Google here folks. As in mega giant Google. The one who controls most of the search online. Maybe it is something we need to consider if we want to stay on top of the social media marketing game. Share with me your thoughts...
Google held a press event to announce the most "buzzed" topic of the week - Google Buzz. This is Google's new product, which is being compared to social networks like Twitter and Facebook. It is integrated with Gmail and other Google products, and appears to be one of the missing links in tying Google together as a social network, a concept we've discussed repatedly.
Google says Buzz has five key elements:

1. Auto Following
2. Rich, Fast Sharing experience...
3. Support for public and private sharing....
4. In-box integration
5. Just the good stuff...

Watch the video below to get a general idea of what Buzz does.

Google launched three new mobile products for Buzz:
1. The ability to use Buzz from www.Google.com on iPhone/Android
2. Brand new app at buzz.google.com
3.  Maps Update for Nokia Symbian/ Android.

Search Implications

Buzz posts get indexed by search from the page that its posted to (the Google Profile page), just like anything else on the web.
