Google Buzz Beats Twitter

I have been a Twitter users for over a year now.  I have come to love Twitter, using it every day both for personal and business reasons, and learning a great deal from the people that I follow.  On a side note I also have a Facebook account and also use it a great deal as well.  Having said this, after Google announced it’s latest creation in Google Buzz I have found myself slowly inching closer to Buzz than Facebook and Twitter.  Here are 3 ways in which Google beats Twitter in a landslide.

#1 No More 140 Character Posts

I don’t know about you, but it’s very hard to say what you normally want to say with a 140 character limit without linking to the actual content, or using abbreviations to hope to convey the message to your followers.  Google allows you to write as much as you’d like.  Now you can say what you want without relying on url shorteners, third party websites and the hope of people getting your short hand type.

Images, Videos, Etc

Think about how Great Twitter would be if they allowed you to put images or videos or other content in your tweets.  Well, That greatness just came to fruitation with Google Buzz.  Just wait until Google starts allowing widgets within Buzz posts.

The Unlimited Possibilities

Anything Google does seems to be opened.  This means that Third party developers can help in the developement of the new product.  Buzz is no different.  You will see all sorts of crazy, some useful, some not, applications and ideas developed to work with Buzz.  It will Certainly be a Game changer.

In conclusion, if you have not tried Google Buzz as of yet, you really should at least check it out.  I have a feeling you will be pleasantly surprised at the way it works.
