Google is rolling out a technology designed to overcome the major drawback faced by all web-based applications: the fact that they don’t work without an internet connection.
Google Gears is an open source technology for creating offline web applications that is being launched today at Google’s annual Developer Day gatherings around the world.
“With Google Gears, we’re tackling the key limitation of the browser in order to make it a stronger platform for deploying all types of applications and enabling a better user experience,” Google CEO Eric Schmidt said in a statement.
The Google Gears technology is designed to be used for web applications such as email and word or image processing.

Steve Jobs and Bill Gates: Historic discussion live from D 2007
digg_url = ‘http://digg.com/tech_news/Engadget_Live_Coverage_of_Gates_vs_Jobs’;
We kind of never thought we’d see the day where Mac and PC voluntarily shared the stage on neutral ground, but that day is today. Very soon Bill Gates and Steve Jobs — both pioneering execs that need absolutely no introduction — will sit up in front of the audience here at D and discuss god knows what. Don’t miss this, people, who knows if this will happen again in any of our lifetimes. You’ll know when we get started. Who’s got odds that they don’t walk out and say “Hi, I’m a PC.” “Hi, I’m a Mac.”?
We’re in! They’re playing the Beatles, just like they did when Jobs came out the first time.
Update: Video recap online! Right after the break, but before the rest of our coverage.

Facebook’s timing is perfect. They just released an API that gives third party developers deep access to Facebook functionality and it’s 20 million users. Not only can these third party startups get a widget placed on people’s Facebook profiles, but they can also get viral distribution through users’ news feeds and access core Facebook features. Using the tools that Facebook made available, developers .

Do SaaS ventures need VCs?
Posted by Phil Wainewright @ 8:47 am Categories: Business models, Venture capital Tags: Software-as-a-service, Financing, Phil Wainewright
I had some interesting responses to my posting last week about Financing SaaS ventures. One of the most interesting got me thinking whether the best SaaS ventures actually need venture capital. Obviously someone needs to put up enough money to cover the founders’ living costs while they develop the application, although entrepreneurs often do that simply by leading a hand

It’s finally time to call a spade a spade, or in this case, a soon-to-be has-been a has-been. Of course, doing so after the fact sounds too spiteful, so I’m going to do it well ahead of the curve. While these kind of predictions are hard to get right, I think I’m calling this one correctly, based in part on a similar call I made five years ago.
My prognostication is about Salesforce.com, and here goes: Salesforce.com is the next Siebel, the next CRM has-been, the next low-priced software buyout opportunity, unless somehow the …
