Buzz update

I finally got my blog connected to my Google Buzz! I had been working on it a bit and tried a couple of different things to no avail, but recently figured out the step I was missing!  So here are (I believe) all the steps I needed to do.
  1. Add a link to my Public Google Profile to my blog page
  2. Add a rel="me" (and possibly type="text/html") attribute to the anchor tag (the link) For example: <a type="text/html" rel="m" href="http://mypage">link text</a>
  3. Add a link to my blog page on my Google Profile
  4. When editing my Google profile, I went to "My links", clicked "edit" on the link to my blog, then checked "this page is about me" (this is the step that I missed last time)
  5. Wait! After google recrawls your site (the little crawler bots find it), when you go to connected sites in Buzz it should show up.
And there it is!  My outside blog connected to Google Buzz. :-)
