One of our readers posted a question in the comments on our previous post- Don’t like Google Buzz?? Remove it, asking “A way to make Buzz not email the updates?” So, we decided to write on it. We simply need to create a filter with “label:buzz“.

The 3 step method is explained below-

Step 1- Click on the option “Create a filter“  besides your search box in gmail.

create-filter

Step 2- Enter “label:buzz” in the  “Has the words“  column, and move to next step. Ignore the pop-up clicking on “ok”.

Step 3- In the final step, select the check box “Skip the inbox (Archive it) , so as to skip the inbox.

And if you want to save the existing conversations, then also select the last check box to apply the filter to existing conversations, before creating the filter.

With these three simple steps,you can prevent Google Buzz updates from reaching your inbox. If you want to turn off Buzz completely, then have a look at the post- Don’t like Google Buzz?? Remove it.
