If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

There is a tendency to equate the need for offline functionality with the need to build an app. Despite the slow standardization process, most HTML5 features have now been implemented across all major browsers.

HTML5 includes features that allow control and storage of offline data within the browser using client side JavaScript. These features allows creation of offline mobile web applications in a cross platform way that would have previously required installed applications. For instance an application that can download articles for reading later or a data capture application that can work offline and upload when you are online. While the standard is not finalized yet, support for these offline features is available and ready for use in the WebKit based browsers found on iOS, Android and newer Blackberry phones.
