Google Buzz your Social inbox

A new venture called Buzz, from Google, might soon do away with the need for constant social networking emails in your inbox. Google Buzz, which is being rolled out to all Google account holders, aggregates all your social data into one thread in your GMail inbox.

Google Reader users might have noticed some nice social features which allowed you to follow other people and see the items they choose to share. In Google Reader, one could share interesting posts that they come across with others who chose to follow them and could even post updates much like any social network.

The features were quite useful, but frankly did seem quite out of place in an application which is essentially an RSS reader. Now as part of the GMail interface they perhaps make a little more sense.
