How to Disconnect Twitter From Buzz

Disconnect the Tweets from your Buzz via Gmail.

Google Buzz is a social networking platform and aggregator. Viewable inside your Gmail account, Google Buzz lets you type status updates into a box; your Google Buzz friends can then read those updates. Google Buzz also integrates the status updates from your other social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter so the updates appear in your Google Buzz status update stream. If you have connected Twitter to your Google Buzz account but no longer want your Google Buzz friends to see your tweets, disconnecting Twitter is a cinch.

• Google account

Instructions

1. Open your Web browser and navigate to the Gmail website at gmail.com. Type your Google username and password and click the "Sign In" button.

2. Click "Buzz" in the navigation menu on the left of the inbox. Your Google Buzz account appears along with its settings and options.

3. Click the "# Connected Sites" link next to your username and above the status update box near the top of the page, where "#" is the number of sites connected to your Google Buzz account.

4. Scroll down the "Connected Sites" window until you see the "Twitter" logo accompanied by the Twitter username you want to disconnect from Buzz.

5. Click the "Edit" button to the right of the Twitter entry in "Connected Sites." The options for that connection expand for editing.
