If single-sign-on is what you want then you really ought to use Gnome Keyring, pull out the Google password and then push the cookie into epiphany. It _ought_ to be simple ;-) >> Do you have good documentation for the google bookmarks API? Last >> time I looked there wasn't anything offical from Google.

That's my target audience. I should point out that despite the name epilicious no longer supports del.icio.us, its API was too flakey to support in the end. Currently it only has ma.gnolia support. Personally I don't use any Google services that I want browser support for so I'm clearly not in the target audience for this :-) /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe _______________________________________________ epiphany-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/epiphany-list
