You'll want to enable GeoServer's OGC:WMS support
(http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOSDOC/Users+Guide), to enable
accessing your data via web services using OGC specifications.
>From there, you'll have the option of providing the OGC:WMS URL for
users to integrate into their applications, or, if you are providing an
application, build a client app to do the same. If you are seeking the
latter, check out mapbuilder (http://communitymapbuilder.org/).
