Social Media: The Generation Gap

I've been working on a social media search product recently, and I'm really excited about it. But I don't produce much social media content myself, so I figured I should start (on the general principle of eating your own dog food, etc).

I manned up and wrote:
Google Buzz is not getting much love: http://bit.ly/doLVii
However, a buddy from college was quick to remind me of my previous attitude:
fuck! you tweet, you facebook, you buzz... what are you trying to keep up with generation z for?
Anyway, it looks like Google is better at adapting to the future than my backward friends. The new realtime search looks like a step in the right direction.
