Pokki is a new application store that brings the applications to you that otherwise remain on the Internet. Made with HTML5, CSS, and Java Script, the applications are lite weight and at least at this point in time, easy on resources.
Windows has been in need of a application marketplace for many many years. The current methodology of finding applications is too cumbersome and quite lacking in control. While Pokki is limited right now in what it provides, they clearly have something here. After having been using it for a few hours I can confidently say that it will have some traction in the marketplace. I for one, will continue to use it.
Windows 8 promises even more HTML 5 integration and this could really be a gold mine for Pokki.
Check It Out> Pokki
running win7 x64 (fully updated win\java\flash etc)
would not show any apps on any tabs.
downloaded the gmail interface from the pokki website, that icon now appears in the tabs and in the superbar but its slow to update, so slow i had to do it manually.
for my needs theres better simpler apps that work well, most are free, and i’ve never found google that daunting to find files tbh, although the latest google tracking\profiling\bubbling doesnt help.
the future of windows apps…i think not
