Then I discovered prism. It allows you to run a webapp such as Gmail in a dedicated window, even as a new process. If Firefox crashes, your webapp will still be running. I could not really think of a reason why I wanted this until I ran it on my netbook. Now I have full utilization of the screen, allowing me to see more of my app.

Even Facebook is much more usable like this.

I also like the icons used in the task bar which makes it easier to find app instead of them all looking like Firefox. Prism is a great solution if you have a small screen or you just want to treat a web app as a real application.
