Obviously its under Google TOS, google is providing services for this purpose only to share your files through web.

How can we use this for wordpress?

I just love coming accross such very clever ideas – I see theres a wordpress plugin on codecanyon now too – but I’ll try this first without the plugin 🙂

Thanks for this very nice trick. But do you know that Google now shutting down this hosting feature. This feature will not be available after august 2016.
So, I will recommend you to use GitHub for hosting CSS and JavaScript files and call with RawGit CDN (powered by MaxCDN) with unlimited bandwidth.
