Ok Google, imho you missed the opportunity to make something of Buzz… At launch I was fairly enthoused about a ‘better’ Twitter experience, especially about the possibility to keep the different chats/conversations/buzz’s together, but after a while the novelty wore off and I stopped looking at the Buzz ‘folder’ in my Gmail. So many were calling for some sort of ‘app’ for Buzz… you just ignored it. Like with so many things you bring out, you are so convinced that it’s the ‘next new, big thing’, that you completely forget to look and listen to your users. Bringing out this ‘widget’ is way too late… people lost intrest, and do you have any idea how difficult it is to bring people back to something they have seen, judged and dismissed ? Oh right, you don’t, because you are all so full of yourselves you don’t even care about your bottom line, your users. Same thing with your Orkut Android app, too little too late. Orkut is a losing battle.

Google, you bring out so many great things, why does all the good have to have so many bad opposites …

Introducing Google Buzz widget for Android

Since we launched Google Buzz for mobile, we’ve been working on ways to make it quicker and easier to share your thoughts and experiences while you’re out and about.

Today, we’re excited to release a Google Buzz widget for Android phones that lets you post text and photos with a single tap. Like other mobile access points for Google Buzz, the widget lets you choose to tag your post with the location or place from which it was posted. You can post buzz about a great meal you had and share photos of the new restaurant. To save time, your posts will upload in the background, letting you get back to your scrumptious dessert without a wait.

The widget is initially available in English for Android phones running v1.6 and later. Search for ‘Google Buzz’ in the Android Market to download it now. Once installed, you can add it to your home screen: tap “Menu” while on the home screen and select “Add > Widgets > Google Buzz”.

We plan to add support for other languages soon. Visit our Help Center to learn more, ask questions in our Help Forum, or give us suggestions and vote on other people’s on the Mobile Product Ideas page.
