exportable bookmarks/highlights #50

...or at least a way to copy metadata.db over to another computer for sqlite hacking - assuming that's where bookmarks/etc are stored - right now that's not user-accessible unless you root the machine, right?

I like to copy/paste book excerpts to my WikiLog for future reference. I don't mind doing some SQLite hacking to do so. I'd even build a little webapp in web.py and share it with the class.....

Let me rephrase this as a series of questions:

  1. are bookmarks and highlights stored in metadata.db?
  2. is metadata.db user-visible (and copyable over USB to another computer) without rooting the android device?

Assuming the answer are 1=yes and 2=no, then please do simplest thing possible to make data accessible - maybe an export function that creates a copy of metadata.db?

I would like to second this request, with a slightly different usage scenario: I want to track the number of pages I read per day, in a third party application
