But this is another discussion. In my opinion this project can be use only in a didactic scope. I think that more than 95% of the world population does not have a broadband connection.

I think this might be insulting to the 95% of the world that does not have a broadband connection. Just sayin. Re: “When planes get WiFi it will be even easier.”

Please keep the Google Gears information flowing, Ajaxians. ...support for a sufficiently sized, durable, offline cache is essential with regards to future of web develepment, no question. Gears seems like it will have the most traction in this space, not only because it's open source, but the runtime will have a much better distribution path coming via Google. [been thinking: what if Google also partnered with someone with a huge viral application reach {like Facebook} to distribute Gears? Gears-to-the-masses would be nice to see] Nice info from Jack.

Now it is much easier to be online all the time. When planes get WiFi it will be even easier. While Google Gears is really cool, I would have been much more excited several years ago.

Both IE and Firefox have it, but it is not sufficient for large amount of data and anyway it depends heavily on browser configuration and security settings. Google Gears is not the only solution, since there is also the Adobe Air platform and a lot of support will be in Firefox 3. Anyway the article is very interesting because it is explained step by step from the basics. The problem is not the offline support.
