And here’s a list of the top 50 profiles by comment count. These numbers only includes comments made on threads started by one of the 598 profiles that I scraped, so it obviously doesn’t include all<\/strong> of their activity across Google+, but it’s a big enough sample size that I think the relative rankings should still hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t
