Have you ever thought of using the websites without Internet?

Im aware that there are certain applications that which allows us to use the websites without internet. But those applications cannot show us regular updates of the websites, since they will hold the cache of the site and display them accordingly. So, we will get the older data easily as I consider that as one of the most useful feature.

Keeping those pros in mind, Google have launched their new powered app and named it as Google Gears which allows us to use the Gmail service without Internet. Google Gears will hold download the local cache which is synchronised with Gmail servers as long as your internet connection stays and if your internet connection disconnected, then this app will automatically switches to offline mode and uses that cache stored on your PC’s HD.
