Google Buzz Slammed by Yahoo and Microsoft

When companies come out against a rival’s product or service like this it can usually be written off as sour grapes but, at least this time around, there might be some merit to the criticism. Do we really need another social networking site and do we really wanted integrated into Gmail?

"We've done that. Hotmail customers have benefited from Microsoft working with Flickr, Facebook, Twitter and 75 other partners since 2008." Yahoo tweeted a similar gibe. "Two years after #Yahoo! launched #Buzz, Google follows suit. Check out the original: http://buzz.yahoo.com/" Ouch.
