The settings are very counter-intuitive and I'm shocked that they would let Buzz affect other services like profiles and Reader.Nithinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16217928467394281224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-78009197436078645702010-02-21T13:44:25.505-08:002010-02-21T13:44:25.505-08:00No, of course not.

If you delete your profile, you have the option to remove all the people you follow in Reader and Buzz.Alex Chituhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618542750965508582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-15778837010579322542010-02-19T12:48:27.792-08:002010-02-19T12:48:27.792-08:00It's not a great way of doing things.

There is also an option to turn off Buzz that repeats the link in the bottom of the page. Here one can also delete Buzz with Google profile without having to visit their profile settings page.<br /><br />BTW, turning off Google Buzz has sometimes strange side effects on Gmail appearance, e. g. inbox is renamed to trash, and some google labs features like power stars sren't working properly http://yfrog.com/4rscreenshot1802201014525p Multiple hitting refresh button helps.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06912792369475218252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-65366868615502365912010-02-18T04:45:35.846-08:002010-02-18T04:45:35.846-08:00Well that has to be the most confusing way to disa...Well that has to be the most confusing way to disable and disconnect Buzz. <br /><br />I'm quite sure that when people see that process, they'll bork because of the 'delete my Google profile' bit. I know if I saw that, I'd think heavily before proceeding just because I don't want to have to create another profile and set it up again.<br /><br />Definitely think that this should be part of the Google Account "My Products" section so you can simply go into it and disable or delete it completely without affecting your Google Account or public profile.Alistair Lattimorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08289907448142168603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-90949385834270091962010-02-18T04:06:46.082-08:002010-02-18T04:06:46.082-08:00I guess Buzz should be like GMail; put a BETA labe...I guess Buzz should be like GMail; put a BETA label on it for the next two years so there is an excuse for the undesirable behavior...<br /><br />as stated by others, FAIL.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00193392570398069027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-53966676513879902662010-02-18T02:07:39.988-08:002010-02-18T02:07:39.988-08:00wow...any how to delete too...
