Chatterbox...(have a look at Blabber, Blabbermouth too) In Persian we say: Verraj!

Re: one who talks way too much?
chatterbox ( this incorporates your two essential criteria: incessant talk + talking boring trivia)
'windbag' is less relevant :a person who talks at length but says little of value.
'gasbag': a person who talks too much, typically about unimportant things.
Note re 'blabbermouth' : there is the implied reference to 'talking too much' because they have obviously said 'too much' and revealed some information that should not have done. A person who talks carelessly, often telling secrets to other people.

Wow, that's surprised me.
Perhaps, talkative (but I think this word is plain and does not contain negative meaning)...

that's a good one... But I think it is suitable for formal context such as academic writing.
