Abstract
A user interface that when selected triggers the automatic sharing of a spreadsheet object in a spreadsheet with a chosen network service (e.g. social network, blog, or some other network location). For example, cells, tables, charts and other objects of the spreadsheet may be selected to be shared using the user interface. When a spreadsheet object is selected and indicated to be shared using the user interface, the spreadsheet is automatically saved to a network share, permissions are set for the spreadsheet to share the spreadsheet object, and the spreadsheet object is shared with the network service. Changes made to the spreadsheet after the spreadsheet object is shared are reflected in the spreadsheet object on the network service.
