I have been really excited for quite some time about Google Gears, the hot new plugin by Google which allows offline capabilities for website. Of course cookies have been there forever, but there was always a need for more advanced technology.

So when today I found the blog gears implementation via the Google Code Updates, I was more than willing to try it out. Using this example, which uses Google gears, you can write/edit/delete posts even when you are offline. The interface is still very simple but it is awesome to try it out.

I’m not too sure it works well with the hosted blogger blogs (like mine). But we are about to find out.

On a similar note, has anybody worked it out for wordpress yet? Or would you have me built it myself. Come on guys, somebody pass on a link, I’m waiting…

UPDATE : This thing is really awesome, now you don’t have to wait for the whole thing to upload on your site. In less than 3 seconds after clicking the publish button, the post was sitting on my hosted blogger blog. If you would like to try it out, go over to Bloggears
