)Monday is President's Day in the U.S., so our call is on Tuesday. Enjoy your holiday!
Google had a busy week! Toward the end of the week, they spent most of their time stamping out the fire caused by the irresponsible default settings in Buzz. We can talk a little about that.
But more interesting are the longer-term effects Buzz has in "socializing" email, and what "Think Big With a Gig" might mean for our broadband future. Don't forget: Google also bought Aardvark, the social search engine.
Together, let's discuss:
- Whom does Buzz compete with? How does it fit with Wave and Talk?
- What was Google thinking revealing our intimate mail details to everyone?
- Might this broadband experiment be the start of a bigger movement?
