hey pamela, thanks for answering.
To clarify, the user logs in using an authenticated call to the Google
Accounts and is forwarded to google.com to authenticate the access of
my webapp to his user details. He is callbacked back to my web app as
authorized.

This is a full authentication with google and he has a session with
any other services.
Why is this method any different then the FriendConnect?

im using Django http://code.google.com/p/app-engine-patch/wiki/GoogleAccounts
to authenticate the user.

Is there any other way? i dont mind using friendconnect, but i need a
users email address inorder to add him as a participant to a wave
automatically and i can get his email only using Google Accounts login
and not friend connect.

Does this clear things abit ? :) appreciate the help. im stuck.
