Google tip: Set ?authuser=[email]

Having lost my cookies a considerable amount of times, and having multiple Google accounts on-the-go in one browser, I am often faced with bookmarks that are out of date, because they point to something like ?authuser=1, meaning "the second account you happened to have signed into".
Now, you might see where this is going, the second account I happen to sign into one time isn't always the second account I happen to sign into any other time, so it frustrated me considerably until I found this little shortcut:
Just set ?authuser=[email] instead of ?authuser=[arbitrary number]!
And yes, this also works with /u/[email]/ as well as /u/[arbitrary number]!

Xenon is a web desktop, which means that all your applications, work and settings are stored on the web. It can be run from any Internet-connected computer by browsing to the Xenon server or from your own server (in the case that you want a private instance, or want it installed into a netbook in the case where you do not have Internet connectivity). Eventually syncing support will be brought in which allows you to sync your settings and files to and from your local instance and the main server. Other features currently available include:
- Audio player (featuring HTML5 Vorbis audio)
- Video player (featuring HTML5 Theora video)
- Picture viewer
- Email (including within Xenon and outgoing email)
- Blog
- Chatroom (Public, open to all on the same instance)
- Notes application
- Friends application for social features
- My Files, to upload various types of file
- Wallpaper switcher
Upcoming features include:
- Settings syncing and importing
- A small footprint netbook/touchbook operating system to run on
- Many others
To try the system out for yourself, you can try the demo (edit 2021: archived) or download the software at xenon.kevinghadyani.com/xenon_alpha2.tar.bz2 (edit 2021: not archived) to your server.
Please send patches, icons, ideas, apps, et al to xenon@dandart.co.uk
