I haven't gotten enough use out of Google Buzz to make having an application worthwhile. Have any of you, or do any of you use Buzz frequently? If so, how do you like it?</p>

I was using it...then disabled it. No one I know is using it to make it worthwhile like twitter. I WANT to like it...not enough there that is different to really make me want to.

It's like GTalk. I'm happy to video conference with people using GTalk. But not everyone uses GMail and haven't bought into GTalk. Why not just use Skype.

I'd use EVERYTHING Google if I could. But generic products like Twitter and Skype get more use.

Am I making sense?
