I got a bit tired of having notifications for unread messages coming to my Android phone from Google Buzz. So I took some time to figure out a way to avoid getting hammered with notifications. The solution: create a gmail filter!

1. Login to Gmail
2. Click the “Settings” link on the top-right.
3. Click the “Filters” tab.
4. Click “Create a new filter” link at the bottom
5. In the “Has the words:” box, enter “label:buzz” (without quotes, see attached image)
6. Click “Next step” and click “OK” on the warning box.
7. Check “Mark as read” and “Also apply filter to X conversations below” boxes, Click “Create Filter”

Done!

What this does is mark incoming buzzes to your inbox as “read” so you don’t get notified of unread mail all the time. Some variations are to have it apply a label and/or auto-archive it. Either way, you can enjoy peace again. *An important note: Even with the filter, the Buzz feed link in GMail on the left will still show unreads.
