Basic Web Applications

Creating web applications is as complicated as writing a thesis paper or a dissertation. It does not only require quite a tedious amount of effort to perfect the function of the program but also demands one constant thing from the user: internet connection.

Whenever a program is being written, it takes several factors in consideration but the most important of them is the user-interface. It is imperative that the application’s interface is easy to understand, lest it will not be used as it was intended to be so.

Using a atypical office document created raises an issue on standards compliance, touching the evasive issue of file sharing and collaboration. What must be noticed is that these browser applications are used by accessing the internet through the remote servers. It is threatening however, for the document, if the connection is suddenly lost or interrupted. Chances are, the document being encoded online will be lost and worse, irretrievable.

This kind of disadvantage poses a threat to the existence of the web applications, hence, companies such as Google have made preliminary solutions to this problem. However, for now, only prototypes have been developed to repress the threat raised by this problem. Just like so, Google has created Google Gears—a beta platform that aims to improve the usability of web applications.
