You seem to have left out the longUrl stuff.

if you put "--libcurl /tmp/googleapiexample.c" at the end of the curl
command, it should generate a C file containing code to do what the
curl command does. You can use that as an example of what to do in
Python.

e.g. the C code contains this:

  curl_easy_setopt(hnd, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "{"longUrl":
"http://www.google.com/"}");

IIRC there's a nicer way to do this in pycurl. Check the
documentation for pycurl.POSTFIELDS.
