Well, the whole world is talking about Google Buzz. It seems a lot of people, like myself, feel it is a bust at this point and needs a lot of fixing. It truly shocks me that a company as successful as Google would make a social network with almost no logic or creativity behind it. Do you feel they screwed up?

I always hear about new social networks that go public, but I see little value in them because they offer nothing new. However, FormSpring.me is a simple Q&A based network. I think it has serious potential. Have you ever used it?

Has someone ever told you that there’s a right or wrong way to use Twitter? If someone told me that I was using Twitter the wrong way, I would be annoyed. Why? Simple, who’s to tell me how to live my life whether online or not? I think it’s all an ego thing where people think they know more than others, but maybe I am wrong. It’s all about your preference and how you feel using Twitter best applies to you. So, do you think there’s a right or wrong way to use Twitter?
