I'm looking for a user interface language to create an application that can be easily ported to run as a cross-browser web application, desktop application, and Android application. Is there anything like that?
I think you're going to have a very hard time writing the same UIs for mobile and desktop; your best shot is probably a combination of Titanium Desktop and Mobile.
Personally, I would go for Flash. Really and too easy to port cross-browser and OSes and be supported by a vast majority of Android devices, especially tablets.
If you don't plan to port it to iOS (iPhone, iPad), you should be fine with Flash.
Maybe there will be different opinions out there....

I am looking for a tool to create an app out of a website.
Basically I want to provide two files: .exe (win) and .app (mac), which both either look for an appropriate browser software on the clients system or use an included version of Firefox or Chrome to display a website without any GUI from the browser.
As far as I know, the service wunderlist did exactly that: create a responsive website and deliver it on almost every platform as an app by using such a thing. Sadly I was not able to learn more about their way of doing it.
Is there already a project for doing so, or do I have to start from scratch?
You can use WebKit to achieve your goal. There are apis in C++, C#, Python and so on...
It is a complete web browser engine. With WebKit you can open a website and display it in your application window.
Check out http://www.webkit.org/
Chrome is based on WebKit.

So, i came with a start up idea, but in order to make it happen, i need to make a web app communicate with any finger print usb scanner - those that you can buy anywere. It must take the scanned finger print and save it in the cloud data base.
It would be difficult,code wise?
I want to code it in Ruby on Rails
As RoR is server-side you would want to use some client-side language to interact with a clients usb, such as JavaScript. I know Chrome offer a feature to do this but am unsure if it will be available across multiple browsers.

I'm researching different platforms for an interactive movie app I'm going to be developing and I'd like to know if this is possible and feasible, in that users would actually get acceptable performance, reliability and so on.
The movies are going to be well under 30 minutes, live-action and won't need to be very high def, but will require a framerate suitable for live-action. I'm intending on porting(?) this to various mobile apps. (although I've yet to learn what the difference is between an fb app and an fb app for the various mobile devices)
In case it needs said, I'm an experienced developer, but I've not done any fb apps.
I'm not sure if this is the most suitable place to ask this but anyway...
Have a look at This Exquisite Forest, it might provide some tips. I think HTML5 is quite promising for such project.

i'm new to wp7 and want to develop 3d games. please help...
I'd suggest starting here: http://create.msdn.com/en-US/
That at least will get you the tools you need for this platform.
You will also want to familiarize yourself with both C# and Xaml languages.
Edit: Almost forgot. XNA is probably going to be your friend too if you are headed for game development. I rather like it as a framework since its fairly easy to port stuff back and forth from pc to xbox. Never used it with wp7 but....good luck :)
On this website you can find all what you need.

I want to develop a desktop application for Windows!
I want it to be visually appealing. Which software should I use?
Use Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF).
It is the standard and preferred technology for this as provided by Microsoft.
Use Microsoft Visual Studio Express http://www.microsoft.com/express/Windows/
or Adobe Flash Professional (and export it as AIR app)
Use components from a component vendor. I find DevExpress very nice, but there are also others.
