How To Use Google Buzz. The Unofficial (and Frequently Updated) Guide.
Buzz is Google’s new social network and it’s already created a stir. There have been concerns over privacy but all in all, the reaction has been very largely positive. This article is a simple guide explaining how to use the service.
Before You Get Started
Your Profile Page
One of the things Buzz prides itself on is the minimal set up time, you can literally just begin using the service and should have a number of friends on there already because , as mentioned, Buzz autofollows recommends people you communicate frequently with via email and Gtalk.
That said, you will need to get your Google Profile set up, yep, just like your Facebook one. If you do not have a Google profile, create one for yourself. Be aware that nearly everything on your Google profile page is public so only enter what you’re comfortable sharing.
You can however choose not to show your full name and also have the option of hiding the people you’re following and who are following you.
Other settings on your Google profile include fields for all your social network pages. So go right ahead and add your Flickr, Facebook, Twitter profiles. Also, at the foot of the edit profile page you’ll also see an option to create a custom profile URL. You only have two options here, either a number or whatever your gmail username is. Note if you choose to use your username, people will know what your gmail email address is.
Whenever you want to access your profile, simply click ‘Edit Profile’ located at the right side top of your screen.
