Just a small update,

I was able to save the result from the AJAX APIs Playground, and get
this link (although I'm not sure it would stay updated as I change the
original spreadsheet, etc, so this is problematic for me):
http://savedbythegoog.appspot.com/?id=ag5zYXZlZGJ5dGhlZ29vZ3ISCxIJU2F2ZWRDb2RlGOfgmQEM

But I have not figured out how to use this link to publish it on my
own website. I have tried both

<script src=""http://savedbythegoog.appspot.com/?
id=ag5zYXZlZGJ5dGhlZ29vZ3ISCxIJU2F2ZWRDb2RlGOfgmQEM" type="text/
javascript"></script>

and

<img src=""http://savedbythegoog.appspot.com/?
id=ag5zYXZlZGJ5dGhlZ29vZ3ISCxIJU2F2ZWRDb2RlGOfgmQEM">

and neither shows the Motion Chart.

Thanks again,
-Christi
