Really interesting work here so far guys. I am most just scanning this thread, but I think you are doing some interesting "browser" work. It would be a lot "simpler" (ha) to have a TW node.js server doing the fetching and serving of the Google data. I am looking at the various online-hosted co

@Måns Great that you also see the potential in this. Google has really powerful stuff, and most of us are forced to use it anyhow, and this will piggyback on that. I need to think of ways to automate import from Google spreadsheets, and > get updates - into TW and have a way to write back to t

@Mark , thanks for your input! I don't know how Siniy-Kits solution works other than vaguely understanding what he explains . But it is worth noting that "all that is needed" is some mechanism in TW that can "pull in" a JSON

In my experience, most programmers would rather rewrite something rather than reverse engineer an existing product. When I follow the code, I see that there is some type of call back. I'm guessing Google calls back to a function inside TW with the requested data. But, the only place I see where
