  Really? Why do you think this doesn't happen on Facebook for you and your friends? Being open is an advantage in the long run, but I simply cannot see a compelling reason to use Buzz over Facebook or Twitter now. Maybe because I don't have buzz in my account yet, the experience might be somehow better, but this is what counts initially, not openness.

    I'm not sure it's got anything to do with being open, but buzz is awesome because it's like a first-class email. I get notified of responses, my comments get saved in sent mail, I can even download buzz over POP! Putting the pieces together, when I write this comment I'll get a copy in my email in a few minutes. Win.
