Google Buzz could be big. I don't have it yet, and I only chat and email with a couple of people regularly. Most of the people I keep in touch with online is through Facebook, and getting people to use that has been difficult. I'm not sure how much, if at all, I'll use Buzz, and I definitely want to limit access to my stuff, but I am curious and eager to see how it works.
For instance, I tried Google Wave at work, which is limited because only 3 of us have Firefox loaded and it won't work in IE without downloading software which we don't have admin privileges to do. And the 3 of us who can use it really don't, though 2 of us did give it a try. I like it as a way to collaborate. I can jot down notes whenever they occur to me, usually when I'm at home, and the others can add to that or make comments and slowly, a discussion occurs. And yet, it's just as easy to email or wait til we're at work together and talk face-to-face.
This looks just as useful, but I have reservations how much I would actually use it. So few of my friends actually use Gmail.
