Description
Could you give a use case that details how this module might be used.
Also, how does this module relate to getting content into, or out Googlebase?

I will make a detailed use case and post on the group: http://groups.drupal.org/soc-gdata sometime.
The basic stuff is : GData can be used for remote updation, insert, delete and syndication ( syndication is already in rss/atom) through clients without visiting a Drupal powered site.
For example an automated crawler bot might could insert data on a Drupal powered site. Ofcourse there is a authentication mechanism as ususal so not any bot can just write data onto a Drupal site :)
For now the authentication mechanism is the normal Drupal one. So you could make the bot use the cookie that was set when you logged into your Drupal powered site.
Similarly other uses can be thought of.... users inserting data to a Windows Application and the data updating on Drupal powered site ? ( that is nice one )....
Keep thinking !!!
