AT&T Unveils Buzz.com

When someone mentions the word “Buzz” to you, most folks familiar with the Internet will think of Google’s Buzz service, which has been a privacy nightmare to many netizens. Now it seems that AT&T likes the word too, as the carrier has officially announced the public beta of its recommendation service (yes, that’s what it is) Buzz.com. The service allows users to discover, share and store recommendations from local businesses and integrates with popular social networking networks (such as Facebook), allowing you to get recommendations from your friends too. Do you think we need another recommendation service, or is the traditional search engine still the best way to do so? Check out a video explanation of it after the jump.
