With the new version of Firefox 4 which you can download from here, you get a excellent extension which would allow you to create applications of all the web apps which you normally use through your browser and run them directly from your desktop. Prism is a product from Mozilla Labs giving you a better browsing experience because a single faulty app on the web cannot ruin the whole browser and this makes it crash proof.
Features :
- Access web apps from system taskbar or dock
- Tray icon and dock menus
- Associate applications with browser links
- Rock solid web app stability
- Run applications automatically when your computer starts
- Minimize to tray
- System tray icon and dock badges

Where do download the extension from? The Add-on page says it’s only available for Firefox 3.6*
