I am using my Adwords account frequently throughout the day. I don't want to have to keep loggin back in all the time. Is there any way to have to enter my login details less frequently?

If you use Firefox for a browser, it nicely will save your login details better than the normal IE. Whenever I hit any of the expired windows, all I have to do is click submit since the login details are always there.

Not to mention the browser rocks!Tab system is excellent!

I'll count this as a vote to have an advertiser-settable option to stay logged in for extended periods (although this would want to be on computers that you trust will not be used by others while you are 'gone'.)

I'll pass the idea on tomorrow. Just curious, how many others would want to see this?

Me.

One thing that's annoying about Google is that if you do get timed out - when you log back in, you're not where you were - but you are back at the beginning of your account.

Me too.

I think most agencies will appreciate this feature.

On thing you can do, is to set up a bookmark with the following URL (XXX's replaced with your account credentials). This will then provide one click access to your account.

[adwords.google.com...]

To repeat AWAs point: this does open up a potential security problem and is not advisable on public computers.

I'd put in a vote for that feature too.

My vote too!

Its very frustrating to get logged out when you stop to take a phone call - and then have to login and start again...
