====== Google GMail Bookmark that Logs In ======

You can create a bookmark that automatically logs you into your Google Email (GMail) account.  This gives you a quick link to your email and also gives you an easy way to login to multiple accounts easily.

Note: Both of these methods give anyone with access to your computer access to your email AND your Google password.

===== Basic Login Bookmark =====

Simply create a new bookmark (or favorite) containing the following URL:

  https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLoginAuth?continue=http://mail.google.com/gmail&service=mail&Email=USER&Passwd=PASS&null=Sign+in

Replace //USER// with your Google username and //PASS// with the associated password.

===== Advanced Logout and Login Bookmark =====

If you use multiple GMail accounts, you'll need to log out of one and into the other, which takes an extra layer of foo.

Create a new bookmark (or favorite) containing the following URL:

  https://www.google.com/accounts/Logout?continue=https%3a%2f%2fwww.google.com%2faccounts%2fServiceLoginAuth%3fcontinue%3dhttp%3a%2f%2fmail.google.com%2fgmail%26service%3dmail%26Email%3dUSER%26Passwd%3dPASS%26null%3dSign%2bin

Replace //USER// with your Google username and //PASS// with the associated password.

I gathered the basic URL information from an [[http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html|Article]] by Marco Kuiper.  I expanded on that by using a few bits from the Jaret's source code for the [[http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/16341|Google Account Multi-Login plugin]].  Thanks guys!
