Google Buzz Blackberry: Latest News about updates in Google Buzz Blackberry, google buzz android, google., google, google maps, google.com, my mobile phone so after seeing Sam’s coverage of Google Buzz I immediately started searching for how I could use it on my smartphones. There are actually a couple of ways to interact with Buzz on your smartphones and the easiest way (for iPhone and Android owners currently) is to simply point your mobile browser to buzz.google.com.
You can read about the mobile web app features on the Google Buzz for mobile site and see a table at the bottom that shows iPhone and Android have the best support with limited support (Buzz layer on Google Maps for mobile) on Nokia S60 and Windows Mobile. Unfortunately, there is no support for Buzz on RIM BlackBerry devices at this time.
A few advanced features supported on Android 2.0+ and iPhone are Buzz on a place page, voice shortcuts, and Buzz icon shortcuts. You can actually speak “post buzz” in voice search from the Google Mobile app on the iPhone or the quick search voice widget on Android. The Buzz layer on Google Maps comes in the form of updates to Google Maps for mobile on Android, iPhone, S60, and Windows Mobile.
Here are the 5 key features of Buzz:
1. Auto-following - you automatically follow people you contact frequently
2. Rich, fast sharing experience – you can share photos that are available via other media sites (such as Flickr)
3. Public and private sharing – you can post things for the whol world to see, or just to specific groups of people
4. Inbox integration – instead of having email notifications, special Buzz items come into your Inbox and show updates in real-time (using @ replies)
5. Just the good stuff – Buzz learns from things that you like and hides the things that you don’t
3 new mobile product experiences launching today:
1. Use Buzz from Google.com – post a Buzz from a geotagged location
2. Buzz application (iPhone or Android) – See what people around you are saying
3. Update to Google Mobile Maps – Buzz layer added, allowing you to see nearby Buzzes and lets you post a Buzz along with a picture of where you are.
The audience asked questions regarding privacy and functionality. Google stressed the importance of privacy as being a key reason in adding in the ability to decide who can see what. This also holds true of your Buzz profile. You will be able to select what you want showing on there as well. Future Google Wave integration was hinted to as well. Things such as real-time Buzz updates were derived from Wave technology.
As of now, there will not be any Facebook integration. Tweets can be pulled into Buzz, but not the other way around. However, this could become possible in the future. It was also noted that Buzzes, like Tweets, will show up in real-time on Google search (assuming the Buzz is public) and will not be given any sort of pagerank preference.
