The great Twitter Desktop Client Seesmic supports Google Buzz! I don’t know if it allows to post content to Buzz though.. It looks like it only can show Buzz and has commenting and liking.
Seesmic – one of the most popular social software clients that allow users to easily access social networks in one application – announced the integration of Google Buzz into four of their products. Seesmic has collaborated with Google and users can now manage Google Buzz in Seesmic Web, Ping.fm, a Beta version of Seesmic for Android and Seesmic’s preview version of the next generation of Seesmic Desktop.
But as Google’s social team has chronicled several times, including Chris Messina’s talk on Activity Streams at SXSW this Spring, many of the different destinations on the social Web speak different languages. Rather than inventing a new language, Google wanted to utilize existing standards to avoid such headaches, and make Buzz part of the Web’s infrastructure, “not a special destination.”
In April, after one particularly nutty report was issued on Buzz’s aggregation statistics, we proved the majority of Buzz’s active content originates on that network. The new Buzz API makes it easier for third party clients, such as Seesmic and TweetDeck to push comments, likes, rich media and other updates to the network, but also to consume content from Buzz in users’ favorite application. This seemingly minor move – one already seen by Facebook and LinkedIn, puts Buzz on par with those historically larger networks, and ahead of scrappy startups like FriendFeed, which never gained such prominence.
Google’s official post on the new Buzz API is here: Introducing the Google Buzz API.
