Tour of GNOME Online Desktop
Here’s a tour of the pre-alpha demo release of GNOME Online Desktop included in Fedora 8. Learn more about what it does and how you can get involved in the project.
What is it?
GNOME Online Desktop is an alternate “mode” or flavor of the GNOME desktop. We’re experimenting with a few different things here.
1. The overall concept of tightly integrating the web into the desktop, as described at live.gnome.org/OnlineDesktop/Vision.
2. Specific user interface ideas, such as a desktop sidebar called BigBoard.
3. A set of platform components that support web integration–these can be used with any application or UI, including the more traditional GNOME desktop flavor.
The platform components are hard to see in the screenshots, of course. But this tour shows off some of the user interface ideas.
