How To Add A Google Buzz Button To Your Blog

23 February 2010 - By Ryan - Filled in Blog Design, Blogging

In my effort to embrace Google Buzz in preparation for it’s future takeoff (who knows if it will happen), I’ve added a Google Buzz button to the blog. Now you can “Buzz” a post you find interesting, stupid, off-the-wall crazy, or whatever.

In case you don’t already know how to add this to your blog, I thought I’d throw this up. It’s a SUPER SIMPLE process and took me less than 5 minutes to download, upload, install and configure. Here’s what I did:

  1. Download the Google Buzz Button plugin from WordPress.org here: Google Buzz Button WordPress Plugin.
  2. Upload the plugin to your blog using either FTP or the Plugin Upload feature in WordPress.
  3. Activate the plugin
  4. That’s it!

If you want, you can change where the button shows. I personally like it at the end of posts as that feels most natural for people who are going to “Buzz” something you write.

Today’s the day to embrace the Google Buzz trend!

    Google Buzz is better suited than FB or Twitter for official corporate or government communications-such as a product recall or county emergency response. For such an application, part of the answer to the privacy issue is for the enterprise PR department to open a dedicated gmail account and proclaim that all communications through it.

    Still not convinced about Buzz – too many security issues and is it really a social hub? No doubt Google will throw resources at it to make it work – but some way to go yet.

    I am not convinced by Google Buzz as well. To be honest Google is beginning to bug me. They are trying to fix things that are not broken and also seem like they are after world domination.

    Be in trouble with the Italians and the chinese. Think there is a lot more to come.

  36. zen menu Says:

    i dont think buzz will make it against facebook. what want they to offer? whats their usp?

  37. Laptop Briefcase Says:

    I am really surprised that you put this google buzz button on your blog already. Personally I'd rather let a technology/site take off before jumping on the bandwagon. As it is now, too many people just won't know what the button it is. To them it is nothing but a distraction and waste of page space. Anyways, let us know how the button does after a while of testing.

  38. Stan Says:

    truth is Buzz overrated and it will be marketing that determines if it suceeds

  39. Curtis Wallis Says:

    I still have not found someone really using BUZZ in a realistic way. Maybe in a few months some will show up. I use alot of googles products im sure buzz will fit in some how.
