There's a really cool app I've used that displays your filesystem as a galaxy that you can navigate. It's not very useful, but it looks really cool. Anyone know what it's called?

I don't know the program but it does indeed sound amazing. Hopefully someone knows! Rav probably will : P

Search for the program I found something just as amazing, if not more so. http://www.determinate.net/webdata/seg/tdfsb.html
Also maybe it was this you were looking for?
http://xcruiser.sourceforge.net/
WOAH
Xcruise is amazing.
It's in the repos
sudo apt-get install xcruise

Lol, I was just thinking about why nobody had done this the other day, except I thought of the computer as a Solar System, with the sun being the main file system, and the users being the planets, and the Local Area Network to be the Galaxy.
