Google Buzz Is Less Creepy After Some Improvements

It feels like all of the nine million Google Buzz posts and comments flooded your inbox this week. And as if that wasn’t enough, suddenly that creepy ex started “following” you. Google has a fix for one of those issues.

As a result of user feedback, Google has made these changes to turn Buzz into something slightly less creepy:

• More visible option to not show followers/people you follow on your public profile
• Ability to block anyone who starts following you
• More clarity on which of your followers/people you follow can appear on your public profile

Now if only they could make the whole thing less annoying. [Gmail Blog]
