some cool concepts there. It might be annoying when moving windows around and they start getting sucked away though...

Interesting idea with the clock applet, no?

Honestly, this is a brilliant concept. It appears to be lightweight, well thought-out, and simple! I mean my goodness, that's the best GNOME idea I've seen in a long time.

If it's not in development already, someone should surely consider this for GNOME 3, or at least its own DE/WM.

I really like the concept.

but in my mind, the animations would get tiring after a while, but overall I love the idea.

I think it looks kind of annoying. If I click a new window, I dont want my other one to go and hide. And that little sucking up the window thing, what if you're just dragging the window to another location on the screen?
