Gears

Google Gears is an open source project that enables more powerful web applications, by adding new features to web browsers.
This gears.modulo integrates with drupal part of the functionalities of google gears

The LocalServer module allows a web application to cache and server its HTTP resources locally, without a network connection.

The LocalServer module is a specialized URL cache that the web application controls.
Requests for URLs in the LocalServer's cache are intercepted and served locally from the user's disk.

For the cache application we used the option ManagedResourceStore: for capturing a related set of URLs that are declared in a manifest file,
and are updated automatically. The ManagedResourceStore allows the set of resources needed to run a web application to be captured.
The module integrates with different types of content created. It also integrates with the views module.
Being able to cache a web application of a specific view.

To work with google gears we have created a plugin jquery with different methods for the management of localserver.
This module is a development version, Google gears is a beta version and that makes it may be unstable
