It looks like it worked for me right up there(tested from a different browser) - In Google Drive, after clicking the Share button, I just set the Sharing Settings to "Anyone with the link". You could make it "Public" as well.

They all executed at the same speed (Google Drive might be slightly faster).
So moving your Plugins to the cloud to better manage them is worth doing!
Here's my blog about this and it gives the steps needed to use Link Shell Extensions (for Windows only sorry to say):
