Google Buzz comes to Android

It was only a matter of time before Google delivered a souped-up version of its new social product, Buzz, to its mobile OS, Android. A slick Buzz widget has just launched for Android phones, and it should thoroughly satisfy Buzz junkies .

The widget lets you post and geotag new buzz, and it features background uploading, so you don't have to wait for it to finish posting before you go back to doing other things. It looks a heck of a lot nicer than the web app at buzz.google.com, and it's easier to use. It could be improved with some fancy Google Maps feature integration, but hey, it works pretty well as-is.


If you're going to use Buzz at all, mobile is the way to go, so it's good to see Buzz pulled out of the browser and given its own shiny Android interface.
