I like the New Google Chrome Search Preview option, even though it’s a way to favour chrome over other browsers… Combine it with the instant search and you have a winner!

How to activate your Google Buzz

So what is all the Buzz about?

Few hours ago, Google announced the launch of Google buzz…

It is supposed to show under your Inbox!!

If you want to activate your Google Buzz, here is what you have to do:

First, you should have a Google account.

Second, you should at least be subscribed to 2 google services, such as gmail and reader for example.

Third, you should have an online photo Gallery, like Picasa or Flickr (Your DropBox Pictures would work too).

Fourth, you have to go to http://www.google.com/profiles and register with your google account.

Fifth, fill in as much info as you can until it tells you your profile is now eligible to be searched.

Sixth and last, go to google reader and click on “Your stuff”;

“Have some thoughts to share?” Share something and it will come up as a Google buzz status…

All you have to do now in order to see your buzz, is to go to your profile, you will see a tab for Buzz!!

Congrats, you are on Google Buzz!!!

…

Few hours or days later on you will notice the buzz under your inbox!!

It is helpful to follow people the way of twitter…

P.S: Remember the secret to get rid of several email notifications from buzzes you buzzed earlier: The magic mute key “m” from your Gmail inbox!

Gmail Mute

Sdkaaa — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 21:40:57 +0000

I recently discovered a feature in Gmail (Google mail) that is the muting of a thread of emails.

An excellent feature in Gmail is the thread view of emails conversations. Once such thread starts bothering you, or becomes uninteresting you have the option to archive any future messages in Gmail by simply hitting the m key (mute key) that is of course if you have enabled the shortcut keys from the settings menu:

Keyboard Shortcuts

Additional key shortcuts can be found here.

In short you can find shortcuts like “c” to compose a new message, “/” to search, “n” for next message, guess “p” is for what? “o” to open the current message, “e” to archive, “s” to star a message, “r” to reply, “a” to reply to all, “f” to forward, “z” to undo and the list goes on. Don’t forget “m” to mute the conversation

There are also combined keys for you to explore here.

These keys will save you a lot of time if you choose to use them…
