Google+ implements Play Store In-Stream installs for Android apps

Google+ has just rolled out an awesome feature that add Google Play links directly into stream posts. Just like other news on the giant search engine’s social network, users not only get to share Android apps directly from the Google+ feed, but buy them as well. This feature is closely integrated to the social platform, so users who want to install an app don’t have to worry about being bounced into the Play Store to complete the download.

Google has a great advantage here. This implementation of its app store makes it easier for folks to get access to apps outside of a mobile setting. Flexibility like this also makes it simple to send an app to different devices, especially if they own more than one Android-powered gadget.
