'Bubbles' brings Web Applications on your Desktop

[The Conqueror]

Bubbles is an application platform, based on Browser technologies. It detaches Web Applications from the classic Browser and offers them with the familiar accessibility, capabilities and always-on nature of Desktop applications.


Web-Applications have been limited to what classic browsers offered them. With Bubbles, web-applications can accept drag-and-drop files, popup notifications on the desktop even when they are minimized, control their own system tray icon and menu, and much more.

This thing is quite interesting for me. Thanks a lot!

Mozilla has a extension named 'Prism' for quite a few days for the same functions in Firefox. I think this Bubbles and Prism do almost the same thing, but we need greater Javascript performances to make them more faster like desktop apps. Google Chrome is build and envisioned keeping that in mind.

Also its an Windows only app I think.
