    I'm sure google will have some sort of API's documented on their site.

    In fact they do :)

    Doesn't look too hard, although I guess that depends how competent a developer you are.

    I believe the official 1 t0 10 scale of developer competance is anything between:
    1: Superscaper (idiot incompetant newbie)
    to
    10: Wolfman (expert)

    PS it's a logarithmic scale. :D

    :rotfl:

    I was kind of thinking of making a google widget for the checkout account, it'd be useful to keep track on my homepage of pending orders etc.

    Heh :)

    I'm no expert. Might give it a try, or at least read through sometime. I did play around the with google maps API's which were quite cool. Hopefully it'll be similar.
