When you create an account, the user and password are sent by GET method. Maybe, would be better send credentials via a POST form to avoid shoulder-surfing.
I had my wp blog hacked a while back with a script it was nasty. So this looks pretty interesting. I'm surprised it wasn't Jaiku :) I wonder why Google did work that site like they should of. Well anyway Google does many things I don't understand :) Thanks for the op to learn appreciate it
I think the lab skipped over bookmarklet attacks. You don't even need to create the link. The home page field could be set to javascript:alert("a"). When I first played around with the web app, I wasn't sure what the home page was (before I configured my account), and I clicked on the only two there.
Also, by having the user expect a link, you can easily make up a phishing scheme (you could use a javascript redirect to replace the page in web history with your own site, which the pretends to be a warning that you are about to leave the site. then you send the user to some boring site, prompting the user to hit the back button. then, thanks to a cookie or remembering the ip address, your fake page asks the user to log in again.)
