Still seems too long - even if I started one at 9am on Friday, I'd have to have stayed active until 11am on Saturday, and I can't remember staying up later than 6/7am in any recent times...
How long is the session expiry time anyhow?
Session expire is 24 hours.
All you'd need to do is login and forget or deliberately choose not to close your browser (I'm thinking both desktop and hand held devices here - Pocket IE is notorious for running in the background without me realising) when you go to bed and get up the next morning and resume the session you started the day before.
"Pocket IE is notorious for running in the background without me realising"
In fact, when I ask people what Pocket IE is like, they almost always say "it's notorious for running in the background without Matt realising".
