I am always interested in any attempt to move away from the classic desktop UI design, as I'm not convinced it is the best interface paradigm. I tried to use BumpTop for a while though, and I just couldn't see the appeal. It was certainly a novel idea, but I thought it was about as useful as Microsoft Bob. I'll just stick with Rainmeter on Windows for now (not that Rainmeter is the easiest thing to use).
I bet that this is a patent thing for Google, as I can't see them really designing Chrome OS or Android with this interface.

Cyberwarfare is very, very real. If anyone disagrees with me, google "Skynet".
