Google Buzz To Retire and iGoogle Stays

Google announced that its social network “Google Buzz” will be retiring soon.

In a few weeks we’ll shut down Google Buzz and the Buzz API, and focus instead on Google+. While people obviously won’t be able to create new posts after that, they will be able to view their existing content on their Google Profile, and download it using Google Takeout.

Furthermore:

“iGoogle itself, and non-social iGoogle applications, will stay as they are.”

Changes will take effect on January 15, 2012.
