Google Gears is the service offered by Google to mobile phones users to access mobile Net facility. Users can access Web-based applications even when they are not connected to the mobile Net.

Google Gears will solve the problem of workaholics as they can work in airplanes or when they are on vacations where there is no wireless accessibility.

Google Gears is an open-source browser extension that lets developers create Web applications that can run offline. Google has been developing the software for PC users, but now it is extending it for mobile users too. Google Gears is still in its early days. The mobile version right now supports Internet Explorer on Windows Mobile 5 and 6 phones. This means that other smartphone users, such as those using Apple’s iPhone, or people using other popular mobile browsers, such as Opera, won’t be able to use Google Gears.
