So today's nerdy post is about Adobe AIR® (I put the trademark in case they wasnt to close my blog like they did
FreshAIRApps) but basically it is a cross-platform runtime that lets you run web applications on your desktop.. think widgets, only epic.I am currently in love with it. Why? I'll tell you why! I now have hulu, Pandora, Twitter, and the best RSS aggrigattor in my humble opinion running on my desktop.. whenever I want it to.. without a browser!
Look!
Click it for a bigger view, but thats me using
twhirl (Twutter app),
Snackr (the RSS agrigator), and
Pandora. No, I dont have a task bar because I use
rocketdock.. which I also love.
So I really suggest you try AIR, and go to FreshAIRApps (soon to be refreshingapps.com) from the link above and check out the showcase. Also there are development tools for the real techie types.
