Just got the greatest idea of the millenium. If you've got XGL and compiz, at least with the latest .debs from quinnstorm (thanks for everything), you can adjust the friction of your desktop. Get it to 0.2 or 0.1. Then you can throw your windows around and for example to other workspaces and this way, with a bit of imagination, you could play a number of great games like curling or 'window throw' in which the goal would be to get the window to glide as far as possible.

Xgl/compiz sure is a lot of fun.:mrgreen:

Yeah I played that the other day when I was showing compiz to my friend. I threw the gconf-editor around, until I couldn't find it again....

It's hide and seek gone mad!
