Incidentally, claiming Buzz didn't make it because Google pulled the plug is absolutely missing the point; Buzz was brutally confusing, had incoherent privacy and sharing mechanics, and had no separate interface, it mostly coexisted with gmail (if I recall correctly). It was terrible; really. That's why it got pulled, and that's why it didn't get any traction.
