My idea for improving Sparks and sharing

My idea for improving Sparks and sharing

I love the Sparks feature here. I think it’s a neat way to discover articles and news about topics I’m into. I already have several topics of interest set up from saved searches, including:

– web design

– Android

– Recipes

– women in business

– Empire Avenue

– Google Plus

BUT… I wish I could edit Sparks settings so that when I share something in a certain topic, it automatically gets shared with a certain circle.

For example… since I’m a web designer, I like to follow topics in that area and share them, but I have to manually choose my “Web/Graphic Professionals” circle to share a piece from Sparks with them.

Wouldn’t it be great if I could just make it so that when I share something from that Sparks topic, it just gets shared with that particular circle without me having to designate it that way (as an option, of course…not by default, but something we could choose to check a box to enable). Then, I could have a circle of folks into cooking, and share topics from my Recipes saved search in Sparks automatically with those folks.

Just something I thought about and hadn’t seen anyone else really talk about.
