Just jumping on the train here. I actually liked google until this time. I liked the g-mail setup and the fact that I don't get lots of spam. Then Buzz happened. What the hell, google?! I don't give a damn if you're trying to get into the social networking thing, back off my privacy! Have not yet found an e-mail address where I can write google and give them the top 100 or so reasons why this is a bad idea and they should have given people a heads-up first. Creeps.

Yeah, I haven't yet found a way to turn buzz ALL THE WAY OFF.

*facepalm* I don't have a profile to begin with, which probably helps. I went in and unfollowed all the people it automatically signed me up to, and asked a friend to see if I turned up on her buzz account. Check out this great satire (http://particle-person.livejournal.com/265989.html) about the whole thing.

Happy Valentine's to you, too! It's all about the candy for me. (Somebody brought chocolate into work today and that made my afternoon.)
