Hello all, I have come across Evernote's bookmarklet and was wondering how this worked.

I'm writing my own sessions controller that issues a unique id to a user once logged in, and then verifies and authenticates that unique id at every page load.

[I'm working in Ruby, but my question is valid for other languages as well.] I have a Mechanize-driven application.

The good news is that I alr...
