2007-11-06 09:24 The (not so) hidden goals of Prism, AIR and Silverlight
The Prism project (formerly WebRunner [1 ] has recently been announced by Mozilla Labs.

In the comments section of one of my earlier posts, and elsewhere on the web I've been talking about WebRunner as an alternative to Adobe Air. Today, Ceasar has posted more info on WebRunner. The first bit of news is that webrunner probably won't be available in stock Firefox 3 builds. The second bit, and exciting news is that Ceasar is working on a Firefox extension. Give his post a read and check out the early version of the WebRunner extension.

2007-08-17 07:32 How to Make WebRunner Portable
A couple days ago I mentioned WebRunner, the chrome-less browser from Mozilla that lets you run web applications like Gmail and others as if they were stand alone applications. They are still on-line, just in their own distraction free window. I thought it might be interesting to see if the functionality could be ported over to a portable USB thumb drive. Turns out it really isn't very hard. First you need to download WebRunner if you don't have it already. You will need to run the install but y …

2007-07-11 08:00 Get WebRunner 0.5 while it is hot!
I have been using WebRunner for a few weeks now, and it is pretty useful. It allows me to use some web applications independently from my browser which makes sense, since these web applications have a user interface of their own and don't require the full power of the browser. The web applications then appear in my taskbar with the correct icon instead of cluttering the browser with tabs. In addition, this allows the web applications to run constantly, even if I frequently restart my browser (w …
