== Installation ==

* Setting up your google buzz account to spit out a feed.

In order to setup the feed for your Google Buzz Account,
goto the following URL:

http://www.google.com/profiles/me/editprofile

At the very bottom of that page is a heading:

Profile URL

Enable that URL. Now your feed is setup!

--------------------------------------------------------

* Configuring the plugin! 

Included in this archive is a file called: googleBuzzFeed.php
between line 20 and 26 where it says:

$feedURL = 'http://buzz.googleapis.com/feeds/{user}/public/posted';

change {user} with your google account name.

e.g. http://buzz.googleapis.com/feeds/ghostbone/public/posted

Between these lines you can also set the number of Buzz's ($POSTS) to show,
as well as the width of your side bar ($MARGIN_WIDTH), for image re-sizing.

--------------------------------------------------------

* Adding the plugin to wordpress!

Upload the folder in this archive to /wp-content/plugins/

Now login to your admin panel. Then select plugins, and activate
Google Buzz Feed.

Once activiated, goto Appearance -> Widgets.

On this page, drag the box titled Google Buzz Widget to
the sidebar on the right.

Now it should appear on your site!

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= The plugin isn't themed to my wordpress skin! =

In order to theme it you have to add styling yourself. An example can be found in the comments at:
http://www.fieldjournal.co.uk/?p=189&cpage=1#comment-256

= The displayed time (x hours ago) is wrong! =

Modify the $TIMEZONE constant to the appropriate timezone! A list of time zones can be found at:
http://php.net/manual/en/timezones.php
For example if I'm in Dubai and my recent buzz says it was posted 4 hours ago, I'd use 
$TIMEZONE='Europe/London'; as London is 4 hours behind. Therefore changing it to x minutes ago.
