When you sign out of Gmail or Reader you're actually signing out of your Google Account and doing so from the same *browser* - which is the controlling app. As I said before, if you sign out of your Google account in Chrome you don't get signed out in Firefox. These are two separate applications with their own control of your session in a given account. > If I have the capability to use Facebook Apps session token to post > on facebook using my app, then logging out of the Facebook app should also > stop working on my application. > *Should* as in that's the way it's supposed to work?

I would argue that logging out of one application makes you log out of another similar application is inconsistent behavior. I have three Google Reader apps - logging out of one does not log me out of the others. And I have three browsers - signing out of any given web page does not sign me out of those pages in the other browsers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TreKing <http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking> - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
