According to [Userplane], Desktop runs on the Userplane network, providing users with a maintenance-free experience with no further IT burden. It is localisable and brandable and offers custom skins, animated icons and global language capabilities, with an ad-supported version available free of charge.
Desktop, a downloadable, customisable application which delivers messages and other forms of communication to and from online communities, direct to the desktop, in real-time, even when users are not logged in online, has been unveiled by Userplane, a communication platform for online communities and a wholly owned subsidiary of global web services company AOL.
Userplane said Desktop works with its presence technology to provide administrators with active tracking of users connected to their websites.
The application has been re-released as an Adobe Air application and is compatible with PCs and Macs. Adobe Air was launched by Adobe Labs, the software development arm of Adobe Systems, as a cross-operating system runtime supporting HTML, Javascript and Flash and enabling developers to merge the best qualities of the web with those offered by the desktop.
