In the google maps android app, if you search for a place, you can click the share icon and send that location to anyone via a wide assortment of apps. I did that last night and emailed this to myself.

I absolutely love this feature and use it all the time. I email places to people, I kik places to people, I text places to people, I tweet places to people.
But for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to do this on the web. When I locate a place on Google Maps on the web and select Share, the only option I get is to share the place via Google+ which is the one way I would not want to share it.
Does anyone know how to locate a place on Google Maps on the web, pin it, and then share it out via a shortlink in email or otherwise?
I am sorry for turning back to back feature fridays into Google Apps help requests, but I love these features and then they go and change them on me and I can't figure out how to get them back.
