| Google Buzz is the expansion of Google Wave into the Social network space with an email interface. It is a public threaded conversation stream. This format has significant advantages over Twitter’s disjointed @reply conversations and hashtag-based threads, as well as Facebook’s often high privacy walls.

| Essentially, Buzz uses a blend of web 2.0 functionality with a 1.0 system. It blends workforce conversations between younger and older generations as well as techies with the technologically challenged. Crossing the streams may enable better communications. Twitter updates, blog posts, and other related content that have an RSS feed can be connected to individual Buzz accounts. It can be used to gather group comments and reach a consensus of interest or opinion. It has the potential to make an email interface into a mini crowdsourcing tool.
