Quite similar to HTA applications that have been in IE for a good number of years.
Personally I'm quite content just using a browser as normal and opening a site in a bookmark. The idea of littering my desktop with 'application shortcuts' just seems messy to me. I tried it with Chrome for my Gmail, but it just seems unnecessary.
I first encountered the "Private Browsing" feature in Safari, a long time before Chrome arrived on the scene. Although I do prefer the per window approach they've used in Chrome. Wish they'd hurry up and get the Mac OS X version out!
Have been using Fluid on OS X since long before Chrome came out, does exactly the same thing. Have had Google Reader running as it's own app; admittedly, it's a little buggy, but works fine for day to day use... May have to give this a try now though!
