Using BUZZ for Salespeople

Salespeople can now use the new Social Networking service from Google called Buzz, as a social tool inside of Gmail.

The purpose of Buzz is to provide a stream of status updates, pictures, links, and videos from the friends, customers and prospects you follow. For example, if you already use Twitter, you can also automatically have those tweets imported into your stream. It has elements of FriendFeed, and a lot more. Buzz is also a mobile product that can be used immediately on the mobile web if you’re using a Google Android phone or an iPhone.

I believe that Buzz will be a valuable Social Networking mobile application for salespeople who are looking for additional ways to interact with their customers and prospects.
