This is wonderful, as it allows me to quickly send executables through Gmail, which has been an issue (small, but annoying) when dealing with clients. How is the login through Gmail secured, though? Also, just a little complaint: grabbing a file from ge.tt brought up a dialog asking me to install the Chrome extension, which I already have; is it possible to detect that? (Top notch only asking me once, though :)

The extension requires login to Ge.tt (it's free). And the Gmail login goes through the normal Google login. What the extension does is to add a button to the page and when you click that files are uploaded to Ge.tt and a link is added to your email body. There's no exchange of any Google login needed.

  I don't mean the actual login to Google or Gmail; I mean the login form that pops up to login to Ge.tt when I click the button to upload to Ge.tt.

    Ahh, ok. With the Ge.tt API you receive a token which is stored in local storage. So the pass is never stored locally.
