Google kills Buzz

Like Google Wave before it, Google Buzz failed to attract a large following within the Internet’s social space. Google’s answer to Twitter was integrated into Gmail and shortly after Buzz launched it was quickly ignored. In what they’re calling a “fall sweep,” Google isĀ eliminatingĀ a number of services from its arsenal, one of which is Buzz (along with the Buzz API). The company says it learned a lot from building and launching Buzz and that it will now focus all of its energy on Google’s latest attempt at social Google+. Sadly, Buzz, you will not be missed. In fact, I already forgot you ever existed. See what else Google dropped during their fall sweep at the source link provided below.
