what’s the buzz with google buzz?

google buzz just got enabled on my gmail! is yours enabled already too?

i still don’t know much about all the features of google buzz, but i can say that it’s pretty similar with facebook’s live feed (now labeled most recent), posting status updates, sharing photos, videos, comments, and more.

view my very first buzz here.

to learn more about the new gimmick from google, visit their buzz page, or watch the google buzz video in youtube.

makes me wonder, is this going to be rolled out to gmail on google apps too? will a lot of people use this? will facebook users divert to google buzz?

a year in between

latest entry in the archives: march 2009. newest entry: february 2010.

well, been too busy at work. same old alibi ey? yeah, it’s true. believe me for once. :P got my hands full, especially when the development manager left. i was his “junior” sysad. so, when he left, all his responsibilities on the administration department was now on my shoulder. been half a year since i think.

aside from not having my own computer and internet at home, couldn’t really write something after work hours simply because i was already tired needed to get home to rest. it’s only been last november 2009 that i got my own desktop and internet connection at home. so, now that i’ve adjusted, i’m blogging away!

so what’s new?
