Post to facebook status with a URL / GET request? (or post)

Tags:

facebook

I rather expect that this might be impossible - but I was wonderring if it was possible to post a facebook status via passing in a URL.

Something to the effect of

 http://facebook.com/?status=<URL ENCODED STRING>

Can I get a URL for a specific Facebook post?

How to Get the Link to Your Facebook Post on Desktop. Each Facebook post has a timestamp on the top (it may be something like Just now, 3 mins or Yesterday). This timestamp contains the link to your post. So, to copy it, simply hover your mouse over the timestamp, right click, then copy link address.

What is FB post URL?

https://www.facebook.com/iampophq/posts/[Facebook-Post-ID] The easiest way to find your Facebook post's direct URL is to go to the post itself in your Facebook Business Page newsfeed, and right-click on the date/timestamp on the post and open it in a new tab to go to the direct link of the post.

Wow. Almost a full year since I asked this question.

As an FYI and for my own future reference, I did eventually discover how to do this.

Google plus does not have a good option to use this method in desktop, but you can use their mobile URL
