    When I sign out of Google, my Wiki Google spreadsheet signs out too - and no one else can see it. Is that what is supposed to happen? Because if so it doesn't really function for a web community.

    With google calendar it would be good to have the ability to select the "mode" parameter, this would permit selecting Agenda as a small object instead of a compressed calendar.
