On the other hand, I was so annoyed by the G+ notifications I now never access Google services as a logged in user. I now check gmails with Mail.app (faster than web-based GMail any way), read Google reader feeds with Reeder, and I never feel missed out. If you think this Google+ strategy is brilliant and cost-free, then I'd at least argue that it costs some long-term loyal users and annoys a whole bunch more.

What G+ notifications do you mean?

  The red box in the upper right corner of every Google property.

    Hmm, that doesn't strike me as very annoying, but couldn't you just disable them?

Wouldn't it take a lot less effort to just disable notifications once, rather than make sure you're signed out of Google every time you use it?
