Site Review: Buzznet

Site: buzznet.com

Members: 6 million

Features:

Buzznet tries to deliver an all out multimedia approach using the same base for you to hold all your video, music, and pictures. Also you can blog, as well as communicate like other social networking websites.

You can import your profile from other social networking sites, which makes setting up your profile fast and efficient.

The site allows you to “buzz” particular entries, tags, photos, and videos much like Digg but for a younger set.

In looking at the site there wasn’t anything to me that really sets them apart from other social networking sites that was significant.

Review:

I honestly don’t understand how they even have 6 million people on this site. Much like Tagworld I experienced lockups occasionally while surfing the site, like it struggled to load the content. While I like the idea of being able to “buzz” individual media I still don’t understand what the appeal of this site would be over any other social networking site, considering most of them are carrying larger media bases.

There isn’t a clear way to use this site to market on, and I have to say that this is one that I would clearly pass up. It would land on the third tier of social networking blogs, in the nether regions with other upstarts that don’t separate themselves from the pack.
