[RESOLVED] Web Vs Desktop

I'm in the design process of making a small application for personal use. I've weighed up this next issue for some time but am at a loss to what my final choice should be

Do I make this web based or desktop based


Web: means it can be used on apple & windows, it means it's accessible anywhere and it i was to charge for use I don't have to worry about it becoming a torrent somewhere, i can makes changes at any-time and everyone is updated.

Desktop: When it's a "game" It's just not the same when it's on the web, so why make it desktop?

I just did this and found our desktop is my way to go

Although opinions are still welcome

To be honest, without knowing more about your app I don't see how we can provide you with anything other than very general advice on the relative advantages and disadvantages of the two technologies and that link already does that better than any of us is likely to be able to. I think there are a couple of key bits of info you' need to give us before we could tell you anything sensible:-
1. What are you making? This is the primary driver if you're hoping to let other's use it in the future.
2. Why are you making it? Is it because you want to let iother people use it? Is it just an exercise in learning? Is it just to make your own life easier in some small way?
