WordPress 2.6 will implement a potentially very cool feature: Google Gears.
Here is what you get to see after you click on a catchy “Speed up!” link in WordPress 2.6 …
Basically, Google Gears is a browser addon that stores on your local computer some files, allowing for quicker (as in “immediate”) access. Those files are stored in a local database that can re-sync to your online content when needed. So, basically, you don’t even need to stay connected to the intarwebs to actually use online apps.
So, basically, no matter how far your webserver or hapless your internet connection, Google Gears should make your blogging experience with WordPress faster than ever, as you’ll be loading images and CSS and running javascripts locally. Geniosity.co.za has a little wrap-up of this upcoming feature that is already implemented in the trunk.
Too bad I couldn’t test it myself yet. The Windows flavor of Google Gears is designed to run on XP or Vista, and my main box is running Win2000. My kids & wife’s computer, running XP on a lower end machine, only spewed that “Local storage status: Error: Invalid manifest - * Line 1, Column 1 Syntax error: value, object or array expected.”
