First Take: What Google Buzz Means « Web Strategy by Jeremiah Owyang | Social... - 0 views

    * Google continues its prime directive. At the high level, this is a strong move for Google, they continue to aggregate other people's social content, and become the intermediatry. This helps them to suck in Twitter, Flickr, and any-other-data type as the APIs open up, giving them more to 'organize'. This is Google acting on it's mission to the world. * Privacy woes will scare consumers -yet adoption will continues upward. For consumers, the risk of privacy will continue to be at top of mind.
