pandoralocal runs a webserver on http://localhost:2620 that provides services that are integrated with a pandora instance - there should be a way to start pandoralocal with a user session for osx, win32, linux - possibly some gui to start/stop and enable/disable session startup once running the configuration is done via web interface there are 2 modes a) integration with a pandora instance, this happens via trying to connect to http://local.pad.ma:2620/api/ and if successfull use the local api in the pandora site to manage local volumes(upload/sync), cached videos(playback, download for later playback) b) offline annotations(something like speedtrans) with ability to sync/upload to pandora later this uses the same cache for videos but runs on http://127.0.0.1:2620/pad.ma/ since there might be no dns lookup for local.pad.ma possible
