Given that Twitter, Facebook and others had the unofficial desktop versions available since quite some time now; Google Buzz for Desktop was inevitable!

People who like Buzzing with their friends and contacts will like this application because it lets you use Buzz without logging into Gmail.

The application is built on Adobe AIR platform that tries to create a mobile like experience. It’s a first release so expect to see a few things not working in the application. The application is developed by a Spanish developer, so a few icons and some text in the application is in Spanish language.

Developer also points out that the Geolocation Buzz/Nearby feature is not available at the moment due to API restrictions. I don’t think it’s due to privacy concerns or maybe it is but Twitter does share the geolocation information with its Tweets, so Google should have a problem either. I hope to see this feature added in the later releases as Google goes more flexible with its API.

You can download the application from here. Instruction on the page are in Spanish, however, if you are on Google Chrome it will help you translate right away!

Following are few of the screenshots of the application.
