… More EditGears, formerly Google Gears, is software offered by Google that "enables more powerful web applications, by adding new features to your web browser." There are several major API components to Gears: a Database module (powered by SQLite) that can store data locally, a WorkerPool module that provides parallel execution of JavaScript code, a LocalServer module that caches and serves application resources, a Desktop module that lets web applications interact more naturally with the desktop and a Geolocation module that lets web applications detect the geographical location of their users.

good plugin
Nice for file caching.
Nice plugin, use it in google wave
nice plugin for firefox, works fine with gmail, gcalendar, gdocs, wordpress and google reader.
No comment.
Used by me primarily to allow offline access to my GMail account. Google is sneakily trying to get their fingers in everything, ohhh scary evil, beware!!!
it doesn`t work in iran
Great idea but can't say I ever see any speed improvements - maybe if I had a slow connection?
(I only use Gears with my Wordpress blogs).
great concept. can't wait to see more apps adopt.
I installed Gears to fasten up wordpress & gmail. But I didn't notice a speed bump and as gears has no interface, I don't know if it is good for me or not :)
تکنولوژی جالبی است حیف گوگل بی خودی آونو برای بعضی کشورها غیر فعال کرده
Nice plugin in firefox to use gmail, but offline. ;)
Отлично учкоряет работу приложений.
Отличный кэширующий инструмент.

Great idea, but I won't use it ever - but still great idea :-D
