Not surprising. If it was trending on Twitter that would be news.
I agree. This is a trending topic on a Google property, to protest a court ordered injunction on another Google product. Unless this trends on Twitter or reaches Reddit front page, it is of no consequence.

#13Wow that live stream update is a nightmare - I keep trying to read what's happened and things get pushed down almost immediately. A clickable (or w/e) "18 new posts" would make it usable.

#16The day that there is a #BoycottGoogle+ trending on Facebook/Twitter will be the day Google+ can claim to be truly mainstream!
Why should a product judge whether its successful or not based on other product. Google plus has some of the most tech savvy users and level of conversation is usually very high. I will say that most early adaptors of G+ are pretty influential in their domains.
I think it's his intent to show that nobody outside of tech really cares about this.

The 'tech savvy' users are everywhere. What it shows here is what everyone already knew: that much of Google+ consists of Google fans.
I'm eager to see when there is a #boycottGoogle or #boycottMotorola for the Xbox ban.

#18I'm sure that there are more rational ways to protest, instead of trying to boycott a company that actually delivers some of the best products. No company is perfect and Apple's case is just a tip of an iceberg in the whole industry.
http://www.dontmakemesteal.com/ is a good example. We know the movie industry sometimes uses intellectual property rights against their customers but there are good ways to fight back without disregarding the merit of the entire thing.

I don't think this will be the last of Apple's actions against Android. When Steve said they'd "patented the hell out of" the iPhone, I got the sense he really wasn't joking.

On the the day New IPad launched , Ipad trended on Google for whole weekend - mostly with people sharing pics of iPad and taking about gorgeous retina display.
