Two things to point out: * What will be their next "stupid mistake"? * Buzz, unlike Google Chat, and unlike Google Wave, is not a federated service. It makes GMail even less federated. And speaking of federation: Facebook now allow you to use XMPP (Jabber, also the same protocol used by GTalk) to connect to their chat. Sadly without the federation option: you can't chat to users of other servers through their XMPP server. You're still in their walled graden. -- Tzafrir Cohen | [email protected] | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's [email protected] | | best ICQ# 16849754 | | friend _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
