This is exactly what I am going to use Googles Chrome web browser for. Excellent for creating small web apps on the desktop:

Until the plugins are readily available, I will not be switching to solely using Chrome. However, that is not really the point of Chrome. I will be using it extensively for the “application shortcut” availability. In just two short hours, I have created a GMail shortcut and a GReader shortcut that I will be keeping for a long time. I love the ability to launch these as an application, and that is what Google is hoping for. Granted, in a story at EWeek.com they do deny the “Chrome as operating system” idea:robdiana in Internet, Regular Geek, Sep 2008
