Google Gears consists of three modules that address the core challenges in making web applications work offline.
LocalServer - Cache and serve application resources (HTML, JavaScript, images, etc.) locally
Database - Store data locally in a fully-searchable relational database
WorkerPool - Make your web applications more responsive by performing resource-intensive operations asynchronously
I haven't tried it yet, but as I mentioned in an earlier blog post, this approach makes sense according to the recent trends in web applications, like Google Calendar and Google Docs. These kinds of applications will surely benefit from local storage.
