If you are still asking what it's for, try this site: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/marketplace/index.cfm?event=marketplace.home&marketplaceid=1 It's an official market for software written for Adobe AIR. Maybe you can find something useful.
For those that dont read what they download here it is....
Adobe AIR (Adobe Integrated
Runtime) is based on the technology that allows creating desktop applications (for general purposes)
using web technologies like HTML, Ajax or Flash. Developers can take advantage of their knowledge in
website creation to develop multimedia applications. In other words, from a web application they can
create a general application with the contents and utilities of a web application.
The
program is freeware, distributed to any users of software created with AIR, or developers that
desire to create desktop applications from web projects. That means that you don’t need anything
special to get the benefits of Adobe AIR capacities.
The main advantage of the program
is that the applications created with AIR are multiplatform. That means that a program could be used
in any type of computer, no matter what the Operating system that computer has. With this Adobe is
trying to solve one of the main inconveniences for a developer: create an application that would run
on any computer/Operating system. They are still working on solving all problems of incompatibility
that may exist when a program is running on different systems...
You dont have to be a
developer to use this software just install it and away you go.... It will work in the background
for you
