The standalone desktop app works in precisely the same fashion, except you have to open it and manually insert the URL you'd like transformed into an app. If you're using Firefox, I'd recommend skipping the middleman and downloading the extension. If you're using Chrome, you have this feature already. If you're using Internet Explorer, and second, you can use the somewhat clunky standalone app.

Web apps are a great timesaver for those who loathe cycling through multiple Web pages to find what they're looking for, and Prism 1.0 delivers on this. The extension is perfect but the clunkiness of the standalone app needs improvement. Since this product is still in beta, we can expect enhancements and updates in the future.
