So the important question might be - what do you want to do with
the "like/+1" type data. And then decide on the appropriate system
to codify that and summarise the results.
If someone can't be bothered to trot out even a hackneyed sentence
expressing their admiration for or at least interest in a topic, they
can't really hold that strong an opinion. Viewed cynically, an
online service doesn't want to do anything* with the "like/+1" data,
let alone codify or summarise; the value is already delivered along
with the clicks, as the rats have a functioning lever to press...

* for its users. for the paying customers --the advertisers-- the
summarisation is probably both valuable and available.
