Feelin' geeky? How about a Google command line tool?

Oh boy, now we can control our Google accounts with a command line! The announcement came today on Google's open source blog -- Introducing the Google Command Line Tool.

Oh boy, now we can control our Google accounts with a command line! The announcement came today on Google's open source blog -- Introducing the Google Command Line Tool.

This tool provides a quick and dirty way to do a bunch of things -- uploading or downloading pictures from your Picasa account, searching for contacts, or even uploading videos to YouTube. Nothing you can't really do using your browser, but it's certainly going to be a hit with those people who just prefer using command lines for everything -- and believe me, that's not a small community.

Are you geeky enough to use the command line tool? Do you have any particularly interesting uses for this tool that were difficult, or impossible to do otherwise? Let's hear about it in the TalkBack!
