If you read my previous article about Google Buzz then you know what’s happening and are in the loop. If not a rough break down is that google has set up a new social networking site through gmail, that mirrors facebook and twitter.
If you would like to stay relevant and up to date online here is a basic step to step guide on how to set up a google account.
* First login to your gmail account. If you don’t have a gmail account set one up. When you sign in to google you will be met with the question asking if you would like to check out google buzz. Press on this button and you will be on your way to setting up your account!
* Follow the following steps google asks of you, just filling in your details (they are pretty self explanatory)
* Once you have filled in your details press on your name. Here you will be able to upload a photograph. The photo you upload will be used accross all google sites.
* Once you have uploaded your picture you can then start to create your profile. Your profile includes your name, photo, people you follow and people that follow you.
* Posting a comment is as easy as writing in the text post and clicking the post button. Here you can also include links and pictures. Note there is a setting you can choose in order for you to have your posts public or private.
* You can also connect sites to google such as your flickr and twitter account.
* You have now successfully set up your google buzz account. Congratualtions! You will be able to access your account when you visit google. It can be found under google accounts after you sign in
