Why a Desktop Application for WeatherBug?
For WeatherBug, back in 2000, a desktop application was the right solution. WeatherBug delivers life saving weather alerts to people in time for them to react, stay informed and stay safe. For all severe weather, the “chirp” has become a warning. For many, this warning gives them time to pull kids in from outside, or sometimes simply plants, call a loved one, or prepare for whatever severe weather is heading their way. A desktop application allows you to build a relationship with your audience. All desktop applications serve a purpose of bringing valuable content to customers, pushing out pertinent information, and eliminating the time-consuming “search” aspect of the Web. In this way, people are better able to stay informed of the world around them.
