I noticed this morning that my Gmail inbox contained an Atom link on the left hand side. Yet another cool and easy way to keep track of your incoming gmail. I couldn’t get it work correctly in SharpReader though. I assume it has something to do with the fact that it needs my login/password to retrieve my inbox. Just another nice addition to an already fine product. I wonder what other new Gmail additions we might see from Google in the near future.
you must be special cause i don't have it :(
Found a cool way to make use of this, but it does require FireFox.
Open Notepad and paste the line below and save it as gmail.html link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom" href="https://gmail.google.com/gmail/feed/atom" /
Open this html document in FireFox. You will see the orange RSS button in the corner. Subscribe to it
3) Now you have your email in your bookmarks.
Has anyone ever viewed the source of a GMail page? Does it look friggin' weird to anyone else?
Yeah, I think they're doing something to obfuscate it. Even the Mozilla JS Debugger does little good.
Okay, the Atom link is gone now (for me anyway). The link mentioned by Attis is the link, but I can't seem to get his trick to work. If I didn't know better I'd say they released it a bit too early. No dount we'll see it again eventually.
Alright Here is the page http://www.clearfiredesigns.com/firefox.html
Go there an click the icon. The one thing is that is will only display the subjects and the links all go to the inbox. My guess is that this is how the Gmail Notifer works. It has all the data that the Notifer displays.
still doesn't work Attis
