Pokki: App Store for Windows 7

"Pokki,  not to be confused with those delectable Japanese snacks, is a compact HTML5-based framework that allows users to view commonly used Web APIs in a pop-up shell.
As Web 2.0 continues to gain traction, companies are pursuing new ways to bridge the gap between the web app and the native desktop application. Sweet Labs has recognized that as simple and sleek these Web apps may be, many users still hold a strong bond with their desktop environment to run their applications. Many developers have already attempted to make the two worlds play friendlier, such as Seesmic, Adobe, and Mozilla. Sweet Labs, however, seems to be on the right track from an integrative and design standpoint."
