Apollo looks neat. Anyone interested in creating
offline-capable apps will
also want to track these, all of which will compete
for your hearts/minds
this year:
- Firefox 3 (web paradigm, all platforms, open)
- Dekoh (web paradigm, all platforms, open)
- .NET 3.0 (desktop paradigm, Windows, closed)
- WPF/E (web paradigm, all platforms, closed)
- Slingshot (web paradigm, Ruby on Rails, closed?)
And of course, you can build full-fledged,
multi-platform, offline-capable
apps now using Firefox and XUL:
- Joost <http://www.joost.com/>
- Democracy Player/Miro
<http://www.getdemocracy.com/>
- Songbird <http://www.songbirdnest.com/>
