Google Buzz API adds Track and some improvements

In August 2010, Google introduced a new feature called Track to its Google Buzz API, enabling users to receive real-time updates on specific topics, such as coffee and tea, similar to Google Alerts but within Google Buzz. The feature allows users to enter a search query and receive updates on matching public posts, utilizing the open standard PubSubHubbub for seamless information flow. Users can easily subscribe to the track endpoint via Google Reader, and companies like Gnip and SuperFeedr have already integrated this feature into their services. Alongside the Track feature, Google announced improvements to the Buzz API, such as enhanced error messages to aid developers in troubleshooting, and updates to the count API to include short links, offering a more comprehensive view of link shares. These updates were aimed at making the development experience smoother and more effective for users engaging with Google Buzz's capabilities.
