[maemo-developers] web based local application GUIs

[From: Darius Jack]

Hi,

GPS-enabled search tool has been incorporated by Google under name local search  in last few years.
Ok. Voice search makes it a minor novelty.
Major problem is if What You Want is What You Get (service mark by Darius) really works.
Internet is not more global village as paid indexing is what generates more and more money.

 
To Allan.

Do you have any items from MediaMoo, Microworlds, GNA at your MIT Museum ?

The same sort of thing is attainable on an N810 using open standards when the connection is live, but the point still stands that the local service should be available offline.
