Gears is Great for Bandwidth

Real quick post, I'm on my way into the office.

Most people are aware of the growing bandwidth issue facing ISP's. With high def videos and full scale web applications, people are using more bandwidth today per capita than every before.

Enter Google Gears, reduce the amount of bandwidth needed for large scale web apps by downloading it once and serving the static files locally.

Brilliant!
