Here is a cool way to share what you are browsing in the Mobile Safari browser too Google+.  This hack involves a little geekery to get right, so be patient.

Steps:

1. Create a bookmark to any page in Safari

2. Select the following code exactlyand copy it to the iPhone clipboarda. name the bookmark “Share to G+”

javascript:d=document,s=screen;open(‘https://m.google.com/app/plus/x/?v=compose&content=’+encodeURIComponent(d.title)+’%20-%20url:%20′+%20encodeURIComponent(location),’gplusshare’,'width=380,height=450,left=’+(s.availWidth/2-225)+’,top=’+(s.availHeight/2-150)+”);void(0)

3. Edit the bookmark you just created and remove the address with the “X” button

4. Paste the above code into the address of the bookmark and this will make it a bookmarlet

Now you have a javascript coded button that will share any page you are on instantly to Google+.  Once you share, you have the option to select the recipients, whether or not to share your location, etc.

 

**Special thanks to Danny at Pecknology http://pecknology.net/toG+/ for creating the bookmarklet code for us**

Have fun!

This video was featured on two of my favorite podcasts “Today in iOS” and “iPad Today”

I had to leave work today shortly after lunch due to excessive vomiting. Moral of the story: Don’t leave your lunch of re-heated fish sticks out all day and then expect to have a peacful afternoon. :(
