I think the ad business will remain a profitable one, but I think they want to move along the same lines as Microsoft.

And yes, Buzz will require a little more “warming” but I do think it will succeed, it will just take a little time.

Thanks again for the input!

Secondly, Google wants to rule the world, everyone knows it, yet we still give in to their "apps." And last, I'm not doing much with Buzz except for sharing things from my Google Reader shared page.
