I'm reading an old book and I saw "Google Desktop" mentioned. Looked it up and it's just as horrific as it sounds.

@RustyCrab I used it to play flash games on the desktop as a kid because I was too dumb to realize that you can download any SWF file and load them in a blank HTML document.

@xianc78 would that actually work offline or does it still need to dynamically pull stuff?

@RustyCrab I can't remember. I assume it was still online. Google Gadgets were just glorified iframes IIRC.
