<p><strong><a href="http://gearsblog.blogspot.com/2008/02/gears-02-released.html">Gears 0.2 Released!</a></strong></p> New modules are HttpRequest and Timer, both for use within workers (which provide Erlang-style message passing concurrency). Particularly interesting is that the Gears HttpRequest module can be used for much cleaner Comet implementations in IE. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/comet">comet</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/google-gears">google-gears</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/internet-explorer">internet-explorer</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/javascript">javascript</a></p>
