In the fourth post of this series I demonstrate how to Login to Gmail / YouTube / Google+ with AutoHotkey.
In this web scraping example we saw how the Google login looks like it is loading a separate page but, in reality, is not. Web scraping is always fun (and can be very frustrating) because HTML developers can think of so many different ways to accomplish their objectives. Check this page for the other scripts I used in the video.
