Is this a case of a business writer talking tech or does anyone have any good articles / blogs / pointers to good material?
Adam Bosworth (Google, formerly Microsoft) has been talking about it for years, and he even had a prototype at BEA: http://redmonk.com/sogrady/2005/12/16/turning-dross-into-gold-alchemy-and-offline-browser-access/ It's very likely that this work is what got him recruited by Google who have since gone on to hire a key Firefox developer, Ben Goodger. Make of that what you will. The WhatWG (a group of browser vendors working together outside of the W3C) are working on a spec for offline web apps as a standard browser feature: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#browser The arising storage issues are also being addressed: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#storage Hope the above prove useful. -- Mamading Ceesay There is no business to be done on a dead planet — David Brower Another world is here - http://www.worldchanging.com/ -- Mamading Ceesay There is no business to be done on a dead planet — David Brower Another world is here - http://www.worldchanging.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: Watchfire Today's hackers exploit web applications to expose, embarrass and even steal.
