Something new comin in 10.10. OOO!

Posted by TWIL on March 19th, 2010

By now most of you know that new look that Ubuntu 10.04 will bring, you know the one which will have the close, minimize/maximize buttons on the left. There’s been a lot of criticisms about that style looking too much like Mac OS. Mark ShuttleWorth responded to those criticisms saying he got “something new” planned for 10.10.
He says that the reason he put the button on the left is because he will be using the right side for “something new“, interesting ehhh….
So I ask you Linuxers, What do you think that something new might be?

Will it be something that will order pizza for you?

I don’t know you tell me, so leave you responses in the comments section below!

That’s it for this rather short post, see you next time

Maybe it’ll open a controlling terminal for the application?
Settings?
Appearance specific to the application?
I have no idea

Whatever it is, sounds interesting!

Running the RC and so far nothing is in the upper right hand corner. I am a bit disappointed by this. They also took out the nice transparency that was near the top of all the unfocused windows. This was also a major bummer because I really liked that subtle effect.

Yeah, I think they decided to hold off on the Windicators. Perhaps for 11.04?

It would be awesome if the left side had a terminal button that would open a terminal at that directory…might be interesting how it would handle root then though.

The ability to upload or compress the entire folder and its contents would be nice. Upload it to ubuntu one or dropbox.

Maybee you could include a review of the new Elementary and Ambiance GTK themes.

My ubuntu won`t run gnome-shell , but these new themes look really awsome. Maybee there is a future for Gnome-shell afterall.

It could be where you add your favorite stuff to. Like programs, but I’m sure its all ready been done. Uhh..I really dunno. Its very hard to imagine what he would add. Maybe an online shop? Games?

“New”=Mac-like.

I think I cracked the code!

A button to activate your lightsaber of course! Pffft! What else could it possibly be?

I wouldn’t be surprised if they added an applications start menu option and possibly easy access to the terminal from there… but who knows time will tell.
