  • Google Buzz is a social networking and messaging tool from Google that is integrated into the company's web-based email program, Gmail.[1][2] Users can share links, photos, videos, status messages and comments organized in "conversations" and visible in the user's inbox.[3]
  • Buzz enables users to choose to share publicly with the world or privately to a group of friends each time they post.[4] Picasa, Flickr, Google Reader, YouTube, Blogger, FriendFeed, identi.ca and Twitter are currently integrated. The creation of Buzz was seen by industry analysts as an attempt by Google to compete with social networking websites like Facebook and microblogging services like Twitter.

    Interesting article w/ new term "hacktivists" -- politically motivated hackers. That is a new term. Twitter is written up in this report as being used by extremist groups of all kinds "socialists, human rights groups, communists, vegetarians, anarchists, religious communities, atheists, political enthusiasts, hacktivists and others...." Why not just say everyone uses twitter? (Well, everyone DOESN"T use twitter but it can mobilize a lot of people in a pretty short time.)

  • Vicki Davis on 03 Oct 08
     
    Twitter is a rapidly emerging place for people to connect. They can use their cell phone or a web browser to post updates called "microblogs" to tell others what they are doing. Many teachers and others throughout the world are connecting to one another via twitter, creating "viral" professional development as some call it.
