Remember The Milk Goes Offline With Google Gears

Remember The Milk a task management web application this week became one of the first sites to offer offline access using the newly released Google Gears.

Google Gears was released last week at Google Developer Day as a browser plugin that enables web application to be used offline. After attending the conference the Sydney-based Remember the Milk engaged in a self described ‘caffeine-fueled’ weekend adding Google Gears offline functionality to their site.

I tried out the new offline functionality and like the rest of the website it is well implemented and designed. Sychronising data when connecting back online was both painless and flawless. Congratulations to the developers for getting this up so fast.

Remember The Milk was also a finalist in Googles Mashup Contest which we covered earlier.
