Bug Description

Right now if I have the G+ app running it notifies me on every single post on G+.

This is too spammy, for example I follow the Mars rover, but that doesn't mean I want a notification every time it posts something.

However, I do want a notification when someone mentions me or posts to something I posted, so it should notify when that happens instead on every single post.

@amigadave I think this is not a Wishlist bug, this is really annoying and keeps people from using it. WebApps should notify when there are new Notifications, not on every post.

Steven, it would be an enhancement to only emit notifications for mentioned posts, and therefore it is of wishlist importance.
