With all the bad PR about Google Buzz running around the web, I am struck with the reminder that people are very happy to trash others.  Is Buzz a failure?  I think it is too soon to tell.  I personally am underwhelmed with what I have seen so far, but time will tell if Buzz will actually make it.  I will keep an open mind, while remembering that not everything that Google does needs to be a hit.

For example I am still waiting to see something truly exciting come out of Wave.  I had fun playing with it for a week or so, but it never really spoke to me.  On the other hand, I really like Google’s Gmail, Reader, Analytics, Maps, and others.  Not too bad really.

The fact is I really like messing with new things, so when Google tries new things I will continue to want to be one of the first to check it out.
