Bye Bye Buzz
Posted by ladyelaine80 on October 30, 2011
I had to write a little post about by Monday, October 31st, Google Buzz will cease to exist. While I have certainly adjusted and moved everything over to Google+, I certainly am realizing that Google Buzz provided a great outlet for my work week. In some instances, it helped me stay in the loop with friends and family, as well as provide (and receive) spiritual encouragement.
So, in short, I’ve been working “buzz-ed” for quite some time now, and I really will miss it. The stream of comments that turned into some of the best rapid-fire comedic exchanges, the incessant links to crazy You-Tube comedy sketches, and so much more.
What about you? What online network were you a part of that is no longer in existence? Share your IT nostalgia here.

When the internet first became popular, I was always in the aol chatrooms! It was in there that I first learned about the Baha’i faith and it was in there that I first learned that “xtian” was another way to spell “Christian” haha. I learned so much first-hand information about different religions from the people who were practicing them (later I realized that some of the information that I’d learned was false!). I don’t know if AOL chatrooms still exist or not – or even if they are as popular as they once were – but I really miss those days when I’d come home from school and log on to some interesting chatroom. I met so many interesting people!
