Google Gears (BETA) is an open source browser extension that enables web applications to provide offline functionality using following JavaScript APIs:
- Store and serve application resources locally
- Store data locally in a fully-searchable relational database
- Run asynchronous Javascript to improve application responsiveness
Great work there, Google. Now please release a new version of Gmail, Google Docs and Gcal with offline functionality, soon.
Any other web applications (Google, or non-Google) would be cool to have this offline functionality? Comment them below!
~~The End~~
