Google Buzz: The Facebook Killer?

Google Buzz was just announced today.  It is part Facebook, part Twitter, part Google.  It will allow users to provide status updates, comment on these updates (sound familiar?) but unlike Facebook it will be directly tied by default to a lot of services people use, like Flickr.

Better yet, you already have all your contacts, within your Google Contacts.

While I don't think this will kill Facebook overnight, it will put a big dent in it.

I haven't yet tried out the service, and it is not yet active in my Google account.  It likely will be within 48 hours, so I'll post an update then.  And since 90% of the people I know have a Gmail account, let me know what your thoughts are.
