Google Buzz vs the Facebook Wall vs Twitter.

[kgun]

I have linked my Google Buzz and my FaceBook account to my Twitter account. I just wrote this http://www.dinjusside.no/ short English summary. Then I

1. twittered about the update: http://twitter.com/kbleivik
2. Instanly http://www.facebook.com/kjell.bleivik#!/kjell.bleivik?v=wall the story could be read on my FaceBook wall.
3. Google Buzz: http://www.google.com/profiles/kbleivik has not picked up the story more than 15 minutes later. Buzz has picked up my third tweet.

So my oldest daughter seems to be correct on the fact that the FaceBook wall is as fast as Twitter and have the same functionality like two way communication via your mobile phone.

P.S.
Feel free to make your own comment on the story. Many WPW members should know how I tell my version of a story. You have only read my biased version. Is your own country worse than Norway and do you think social media (networks) are a new power that can challenge big money / company power?

I do believe: social media (networks) are a new power that can challenge big money / company power...yes I do and it happens from time to time.

I remember in Canada, a few years back there was a group on Facebook that wanted to Stop the Great HSBC Graduate Rip-Off and it worked!

So yes, I do believe...

Good post kgun...

Yes, and I am sure they have already lost money

1. because of the story.
2. I know a case where 35 customers were lost because of the story.
3. Vikings against vikings. I will not surrender as long as I live and can pay my hosting company. And my claim is crystal clear and not negotiable.

It seems to me that full justice is really only available for people with alot of money. So often hear of celebrities winning some big court battle for some case that any ordinary person, even though just as damaged, could never afford to fight.

Social media...in fact the internet as a whole... allows you to expose things to an extent, which is something, a kind of justice, maybe a deterrent to those who previously thought they could rip you off with no repercussions.

Thank you both for great feedback. Don't be afraid of giving negative feedback.

It seems to me that full justice is really only available for people with alot of money. So often hear of celebrities winning some big court battle for some case that any ordinary person, even though just as damaged, could never afford to fight.

So I have two options:

1. Getting famous.
2. Becoming rich.

I have a little less than 50 web sites (see my mini network). The man that is married to my oldest daughter told me to publish the story on every site. I have only written about it where it is meaningful, semanitc like the site in my OP and on two other sites. My own view is that time work for me and against the two companies.

I think I would have a better case in USA where consumer protection is greater than in Europe. There the story would be picked up by sites like:

• http://consumerist.com/
• http://www.ripoffreport.com/
• http://www.my3cents.com/
• http://www.consumeraffairs.com/
• http://www.planetfeedback.com/

It only cost me time and frustration to write about the story. As long as the content is semantic it does not degrade my sites beyond the fact that some Norwegian and International companies don't like the story and me. I think consumer protection is stronger in North America than in Europe.

Go to Google.no and search

telenor "elendig kundeservice" Resultat 1–10 av ca. 1 080 for telenor "elendig kundeservice". (0,19 sekunder)

Elendig kundeservice = Very bad customer service

The top hits are similar to mine, even if few have ended in court.

TeleNor took a customer that complained about and would not accept a higher than negotiated price to court.

Doesn't that tell you everything about TeleNor and Norwegian court?

And finally the two tweets are picked up by Google Buzz.

I also agree with you that , now a days social networks became so much popular & in this regard FaceBook & Twitter is now became king & queen of social networks respectively.

[kgun]

Hmm... For my .02, I would have to say that based on just the sheer number of users, Facebook is the clear winner here. Google Buzz is still a distraction and Twitter is well.... twitter.

I agree to that. But I think that more and more people discover the power of Twitter.

Did you note my recent (updated) http://www.www-toolbar.com/#wwwdrivers article, hopefully with some valuable links.

And today, something special happened to me personally. I have had about 20 followers on twitter. Suddenly I got 44 new followers without doing anything special aside from including a "Twitter Updates" section on my site: http://www.kjellbleivik.com/

Why else should so many sign up on a single day?
