I’d like to allow my website (which allows users to post to the website itself, and, if the user enables it, Facebook) to be able to share a user’s post to Google+. After reading through all I could find on stackoverflow/etc., it seems that the official G+ API doesn’t allow you to post anything to a user’s stream. That means that I’d have to use a share button/link/etc. The problem is, every share button/link I’ve found is for sharing _url_s…but I want to share text (and maybe an added URL if necessary)! If there’s already a question answering this, sorry for reposting, but it must’ve gotten hidden beneath the ~ 5,000 questions that got returned for my search 😀

Thanks,

Matthew

    The Share API is intended for sharing pages, although you could share a page and have the Snippet data on that page contain the text that you want to share.

    You may also want to look into the History API, which is currently in developer preview, to see if it will meet your needs or to provide feedback to Google about what changes you might need.
