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 Van Riper 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.
Although this is a free event, we will be limiting attendance to a maximum of 200 attendees. For last minute updates on this event, please refer to the main meeting announcement on the Silicon Valley GTUG site.
We would like to thank Google for providing the venue and the refreshments for this meeting.
Please join our Google Group in order to get announcements of future events.
