How to collect e-mail addresses from a click of a button?

My team and I are currently exploring different methods of collecting email addresses from our website visitors.

We want to do something cooler than a contact forms, and we really like the way quicksprout.com handles this and would like to do the same.

Where would I start to implement collecting email addresses through a couple clicks of a mouse via connecting our visitors through google plus api from our homepage? Is this possible to implement through a regular http static html site?

NO A server is needed in order to collect email addresses. At least in order to add them to a database. This can not be done using just a static html site.

Now, since a server will be needed, you can just access the emails like link (This also avoids a hassle with Same Origin Policy)

For example: Let the user login via google oauth, save the user related email in your database. fine (if the user has saved its login data in its browser or is already logged into its google account in the used browser, this would be a mouse click only solution.)
