It definitely helped! I managed to get my own version working in Python. http://github.com/askedrelic/Google-Reader-API Hey, thanks for the more recent write up compared with that Google Code wiki.

Those tokens will expire in time. If you find a solution I'd be interested to hear it.

I was mistaken. That didn't help. I sent headers in my previous request, and all subsequent worked for a while, so I assumed cookie worked, while it actually didn't. So the question stays. Nope.

Thanks much. I've been trying to rewrite your code in JavaScript, so JSON format is perfect for me. But I can't get the getToken to work. BTW, I don't have to worry about same domain policy. So I parse the strings from the first request, get the SID, save it to a cookie and then request the token. But this one doesn't go through. Any thoughts why this may be? Great article! Thanks much.

Are you still able to get your tag editing functions to work? I've been working on a reader client and have had a pretty smooth time other than with marking items with tags such as "read" and "starred." Even though I seem to be replicating the necessary POST data exactly, I always get an "invalid stream name" message. Since there's so little information out there on the unofficial API, I thought I'd ask for your thoughts. Thanks again! Hey, thanks for all of this great information.
