Google has not made the API available for personal pages, so the integration, at this point, is limited to business pages only. Buffer co-founder Leo Widrich told TechCrunch that Buffer “hopes to be first in line” if Google opens the API for personal pages.

Buffer already supports Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and App.net. In June, Buffer announced a partnership with FollowerWonk to help social media mangers determine the best time to schedule their posts.
