What is a Web Application?

Web applications (web apps) are just like other computer programs, except you access them through your favourite internet browser and all of the data is stored remotely on a secure web server. Examples of popular web applications are facebook, twitter, ebay and internet banking.

How can a Web App help my business?

With internet access increasingly prevalent and speeds fast approaching those of wired networks, web applications are set to shape the future of computer software ever more, offering everyday businesses great opportunities at harnessing the digital age for their customers and their own mutual benefit.

Some useful facts about web applications:

• almost always available (typically better than 99.9% availability)
• use wherever you have an internet connection (even via mobile phone)
• bulletproof reliability and low maintenance (no local IT burden)

You may have heard about Google's internet browser "Chrome", but what you may not know is that Chrome is the first step towards Google's internet based operating system, also named "Chrome" due for release in the third quarter of 2010.

Google's Chrome OS will be the first to feature wholly internet based applications for all common desktop needs - from creating documents and spreadsheets to editing photos and videos. Considering Google's track record, any business considering a bespoke software project would be well advised to develop a web application instead.
