    Appears as if I can't access Google Notebook over https :(

    You're such a linkwhore lately :)


    There's a bunch of firefox extensions you can use to enforce this as well - everything from greasemonkey scripts to full blown extensions.


    The downside, of course, is that the HTTPS connections take more resources on both ends, require more CPU time to process, generate more network traffic, etc.


    Also, if you're going to access gmail via SMTP or POP3, SSL is enforced...

    The Firefox extension Customeize Google has options to autmatically redirect all your Google traffic to the https version. Very useful.
