I fully agree on Buzz usually being "more of a passive marketing stream than an active one". Unless some photographer comes along and really crushes it. Anybody thought that you can make really huge money with microstock? Well, and then came Yuri Acours. <br>However, the I see it most useful if you integrate it into your already existing distribution strategy. Using free services such as ping.fm, it is zero effort to keep buzz updated with more input than just your flickr photo stream. I posted a video tutorial on how to setup Google Buzz in order to distribute photographs: <a href="http://SmokingStrobes.com/buzz" rel="nofollow">http://SmokingStrobes.com/buzz</a> . The strategy helps marketing photos if that is your intention. Besides that, I believe we photographers should see Buzz as a similar cocktail party like facebook and we should use it to spark the one or the other nice conversation. So let's get buzzing.
