I just turned on the Google Gears option with Google Docs and it allowed me to create a desktop icon. The desktop shortcut is actually saved as a Mac application which is pretty cool. Do any of the other Google Services have this feature?

It ain't new Colin. Sorry :/

David, I didn't say it was new ;) My question was what other Google Services allow me to save an app (Desktop Shortcut) to my desktop or Dock for Mac.

You'll see a similar feature when Calendar adds offline access (that should've happened by now).

Sweet, so they are going more towards the idea of desktop apps.
