Sorry for the straight link, but, this is the cube. The cube is pretty cool

That's been around for a while hasn't it?

Depends on what you mean by "a while". The cube is known since a decade, but was lost to old tech based on compiz. Since then some people tried to bring it back on the newer desktop environments through extensions and a new implementation of the idea. I think someone wrote an extension for GNOME before. The version on KDE is independent from that and different.

compiz and emerald, wow I was not expecting to unlock that memory tonight!

Yeah, that about lines up with the last time I saw it I think and compiz sounds familiar. Cool to see they brought it back!

Oooh I've seen this years ago ! looks pretty cool. It's basically a workspace switcher.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
