Banish Your Browser With Innovative Adobe AIR Apps

A lot of great software has already been built using relatively young platform Adobe AIR. We take a quick gander at 11 of the best Adobe AIR apps, all of which come for the low price of free. To get started using AIR applications, all you need to do is download and install AIR (also provided here). Once you've done so, downloading and opening an AIR application on your desktop will trigger the standard AIR installer (think of these files like traditional .msi or .exe setup applications, except AIR handles the installations). These freebies do everything from managing Twitter to streaming your music to stitching panoramic images.
