Google is going to be launching an experimental fiber optic network in an as-yet unannounced part of the country in March. They are going to serve at least 50,000 people, and up to 500,000 people with internet at competitive pricing and speeds of about 1 gigabit.

Google launched "Buzz" earlier this week, its entry into the social media sphere. Buzz acts like a merger of Facebook and Twitter, allowing for both short-form discussion, as well as layered comments and multimedia postings. The service can also aggregate your activity on other sites, such as Twitter or Flickr, and create automatic postings in Buzz, acting sort of like FriendFeed.

Google announced on February 11th that they had aquired Aardvark, a social search startup. Aardvark is based off an algorithm that directs questions to people who might be able to answer them; questions that might be difficult to find the answer to (such as specific issues with software) or preference questions work well in this format.
