GMDesk is a Adobe AIR based application that lets you run Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs and Google Maps as a stand-alone application to do all your mail , calendar, Docs, Maps, Reader etc. The best advantage of this application is that you dont have to open websites to access these services. GMDesk offers an easy menu as well as keyboard shortcuts to switch between different Google services, and you can specify what default service you want the application to start with.
Another good feature of GMDesk is that it supports Google Apps account as well. This can be selected from the option. You have the option to select regular Google account or Google Apps account. You can also select the start up service from the preferences list. Apart from this there is option to run the application in full screen.
GMDesk is a good start up application, but there are few things to improve as well. The fonts in the application is bit on smaller side and this makes less readable. Further you can access only one application at a time, this means if you are using Gmail, you will need to close it to open Docs or Calendar. Another aspect to improve is the memory consumption of GMDesk which is again on a higher side.
NOTE : Adobe AIR runtime is required to install and run GMDesk.
