Gears is an open source plug-in that teaches current web browsers new
tricks. Gears is a clever way to raise the bar cross-browser and
cross-platform, today, running inside of Firefox and Internet Explorer
on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. No more waiting years for features to
show up across all browsers and platforms. APIs include: A real
embedded relational database (SQLite) for web sites; client-side full
text search; threads for JavaScript; offline web applications; secure
and fast cross-domain mashups; desktop shortcuts; mobile devices; and
more. Come and learn how to use Gears from Brad Neuberg (Dojo Offline,
Dojo Storage, Really Simply History, Hyperscope, coworking), Developer
Advocate at Google and member of the Gears team.

During the networking hour, we invite our members that develop
applications using Google Technology to do brief demos of 5 minutes or
less. Please contact me directly to indicate your interest to demo
your stuff. Time permitting, we will include as many demos as possible
before the main event. Demos of web applications that use Google Gears
will be given precedence for this particular meeting.
That's All Folks, Van
