Google Buzz - Thumbs down

I agree with a lot of Priya's comments in this post. Mainly the amount of time that I could spend doing more productive stuff.

So I decided to go ahead and delete my Buzz account as described in this post at life hacker. (Updated to remove the link since it is no longer available)

The worst part of this is that it deleted all the people who I used to follow in Google Reader. Sucks big time.

Being inundated by updates every few hours can be a little annoying, I agree.
The link seems to be a dead one, though.

Hi Stef,

Yep. It looks like they deleted the link. Google now allows you to disable it at the bottom of you gmail page. More details
