Google+ trends: Steve Jobs Atari memo, Sina enforces restrictive code of conduct

A memo written by Apple co-founder Steve Jobs while he was still working at Atari will be sold by auction house Sotheby's.

The document details Steve Jobs's instructions for converting PC boards on Atari's World Cup arcade game. The lot is expected to sell for between $10,000 to $15,000.

Chinese microblogging service Sina has started enforcing its new user contract, which prohibits its users from posting "national secrets," "calls for disruption of social order" or rumors. G+'ers say Sina's 'censorship system' hinders free speech.

Google+ users are still talking about Justin Bieber's run-in with the paparazzi. They are posting photos taken moments after the alleged incident and linking to news articles that suggest Justin Bieber 'physically battered' a photographer after he captured photos of the pop star and his girlfriend, Selena Gomez, on Sunday.

Google+'ers, many of whom are still enjoying the final hours of the Memorial Day holiday in the US, are posting funny photos, videos and animated GIFs in their feed along with the hashtag #Funny. Popular posts include a photo of a person trying to hitchhike with an axe, a photo of a chair-stealing cat, and an animated GIF of a dog knocking over a baby.
