Titanium, like AIR, is part of this converging of the web and desktop you're talking about - big difference is that it's open source. When the internet is down you're not totally out of luck! Developers can build Titanium apps to work natively on the desktop using standard web technologies like HTML, CSS, and Javascript, as well as Flash and Silverlight.

I am a little leary of the convergence of desktop and web. There is nothing more frustrating than trying to get work done when the connection is down. I think Dropbox might actually be the first example for my mind on how seamless this aforementioned convergence works. Dropbox appears very seamless for me. I move my files and when I have a web connection the files are added to the Dropbox server waiting for my other computers or shared users. Likewise, I also retrieve the files that are left for me. All of this is intertwined between the web and desktop. Obviously, you know this because you wrote about it a while ago, but that was the best example for me so far. I hope your time in Korea is going well. I have been thinking about you a lot. Take care, bud. Hmm, I have to admit that I am like you. I am a little leary of the convergence of desktop and web.

Then I checked it out and saw what it was about, but didn't know too much about it. Then you post this, awesome. I might just test it out. Sometimes I am in places where the internet isn't very reliable, this could really help. I was taking a look at that one day and thought the same thing.
