Video Trends

Google+ turns 3 years old on Saturday, a birthday the service is celebrating with little fanfare. Google didn't make any major announcements or release any special features to commemorate the moment. Google+ didn't even rate an appearance at Google I/O, the company's biggest tech conference, which wrapped up on Thursday. The main problem is that as Google+ evolved and everyone failed to remove it from Facebook's ever-growing shadow.

For nearly two hours on Thursday, Twitter's list of worldwide trending topics was dominated by hashtags like #GermanyvsUSA and #PORGHA for the two World Cup matches taking place. When Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal for Portugal, the phrase finally Ronaldo started trending. When it was determined that the U.S. would advance to the next round to play Belgium, USA vs Belgium entered the list.
