I'm sorry, but he's upset enough with Google removing its Reader service that he has opted to take his eggs from one basket to another? Why doesn't he just use Bing for what it is good for, Google for whatever it is good for, and then use other third party services? This isn't much of a boycott since it appears he doesn't pay for any services.

There are certainly some products which are nearly impossible to switch in short term range. The whole point of switching is that people show Google that they can take their Ads-attracting eyeballs to their competitors if and when they want. Sure Google is providing data liberating service but it should be people who would make the decision.
