Dekoh: Integrated experience of Web and Desktop

Dekoh is desktop platform for applications that deliver integrated experience of web and desktop. Along with the free Dekoh Desktop, comes a gallery of personal media applications and Dekoh Network service that helps users share content/applications directly off their PC.

So far Desktop applications and web applications were built and deployed as silos. Desktop applications are usually written OS specific and offer richer user interface. Web applications are accessed through web browsers. They require Internet connectivity and user data uploaded or saved on websites. Collaborating and sharing data is easy in web applications.

Jay Pullur, CEO of Pramati says, "Dekoh bridges the big divide between Desktop and the Web. Using browser-based applications seamlessly when offline or online is a compelling value. Writing desktop applications using the same web standards like Java^TM, AJAX, DHTML, Flash, and PHP is exciting for developers".

A very interesting concept - I have signed up for Dekoh and will start using it. Lets see do they live up to the expectations.
