Google Gears up to take Gmail offline 9:38AM, Friday 18th July 2008
Google is preparing to take its email and calendar applications offline, integrating them with the Gears technology it introduced last year.

Both Gmail and Calendar will have Gears support within six weeks, according to the unofficial Google Operating System blog, enabling users to use both applications when they are not connected to the internet.

Changes are then uploaded when the user reconnects.

The search giant's RSS software Google Reader and its office suite Google Docs are already integrated with Gears.

Google Operating System also reports that the company will soon add SyncML support to Gmail. SyncML is a data synchronisation technology, largely employed by mobile phone manufacturers. The blog says that Google's implementation is "related to the sync that they worked on with Apple for 3G iPhone".
