Sharing my blog via Google like I can with Twitter.
-
I am no longer on Facebook and I am getting heavily into Google+ I would LOVE for my post to automatically go to my Google page like they do to my Twitter feed. I do not feel I should have to upgrade to a .org account to enjoy this functionality. Can we get a widget that works like the Twitter connection?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

No we cannot and thank GOD.
Google+ has specifically banned robot posting, as they want their participants to be real people reading the site and contributing live, not using it as a push notification platform.
It’s the very best thing about G+ right now.
There is no platform or upgrade that will do this, short of paying someone to do it for you and giving them your Google identity.

I am a real person trying to cover as much social space as possible in a short amount of time. That is why I would love to have this feature. And I have seen people post items from Hootsuite and Tweetdeck on Google+ so I’m not quite what the difference is?
-
They are doing it manually, in realtime.
As you yourself say you are trying to cover as much social space as possible in a short amount of time. This is directly antithecal to G+’s goal of having real people participating live and staying on their site. So they do not enable it.
-
They can’t possibly be doing it manually because you can set automatic updates via Hootsuite. I’ve never used TweetDeck but I bet they have auto updates as well. Please explain to me how Google is preventing this? Is there an algorithm that detects auto-post? I’m just trying to understand because I’m not seeing the difference.

You CAN but you don’t have to. I have friends who work at Hootsuite and they say G+ won’t give them the necessary tools and access. Really. Hootsuite is like five blocks from my house. This is what G+ says, this is what they have always said, and this is what Hootsuite says.
-
I’ve been using Tweetdeck for the past five hours, all live. You can schedule a tweet in Tweetdeck, but you can’t schedule a G+ post because G+ will not allow it.

So basically, the auto-post I setup via Hootsuite will be blocked by Google according to Google and Hootsuite? Funny because it went through and posted to my Google page. If they block me I guess I will just keep copying and pasting my blog post into Google. Thank you for your assistance.
