Facebook is User\/social\u00a0group centric where Buzz is location centric. Now you can Buzz into the Buzz sphere or keep it private, to you close friends so its\u00a0smiler\u00a0to Twitter from that respect.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing that gets me is the fact that\u00a0I\u00a0can press the nearby button or\u00a0enable\u00a0it on Google maps and just see where the buzz is. I can see the security issues with it though. By the end of the day every site with a security team will have at least one article that outlines the security risks of sharing your Geo-coordinates. The most\u00a0practical\u00a0thing about it though is that it propagates your public feeds from your current social network sites.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the day it don&#8217;t matter what they say what matters is user base.
