Google+ lets 3rd Party Apps into API

Google is now letting 3rd party applications into the Google Plus API for business pages.

This means people will be able to manage and update their business pages using a 3rd party system without having to go directly to the Google+ website.

At the moment there are a number of developers whom have access to the Google Plus API:

Hootsuite
Buddy Media
Vitrue
Context Optional
Hearsay Social
Involver

These are all paid for applications that large businesses are using.

I am really waiting for Google Plus to allow automatic posting by a RSS feed. I want to automatically post all my content onto my Google Plus business page. At the moment this doesn’t seem possible but it looks like we are getting closer.

A huge amount of bloggers will no doubt also be waiting for this feature to come. As soon as access is allowed we will let you know.
