8 Power Docks For Your Linux Machine
,----[ Quote ]
| To have or not to have a dock in Linux is really dependent on individual
| preferences. While popular Linux distros such as Ubuntu and Fedora do not
| come with a dock by default, there are plenty of dock applications around
| that one can easily install and create a dock for their desktop.

8 Image Viewers for Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| Gwenview
|
| Gwenview is by far the most popular image viewer for KDE, and it comes with
| all the features a well-thought image viewing application should have: it
| provides a file browser, previews, resizeable thumbnails, and a wealth of
| plug-ins for basic image manipulation. The sidebar will display image
| information, together with shortcuts to several useful file operations, like
| left/right rotation, resize or red eye reduction. You can also insert ratings
| for your images, up to five stars (handled the same way Amarok 2.0.2 handles
| ratings for audio files).

10 Must-Have Linux Applications
,----[ Quote ]
| 9. Pidgin
|
| While I work hard not to spend my days in instant messenger, the fact remains
| that I do conduct a fair amount of business in my favorite IM. And that IM of
| choice is known as Pidgin.
|
| Unlike other IM clients, Pidgin is cross platform, open source, and best of
| all, highly extensible. Just look at the list of add-ons you can bring to the
| party here!
|
| What makes this a must-have application?
|
| Pidgin can provide protocol support to just about anything. Not just AIM,
| MSN, ICQ, and Yahoo. No, Pidgin also can use add-ons to provide support for
| Twitter updates and Facebook chat, amongst other new ways of communicating.
|
| 10. KINO
|
| Not my only choice for handling the needs of video editing, but definitely
| what I use to extract video off of my DV camera without using CLI and DVGrab.
|
| KINO also is a great means for a fast edit without needing to bother with
| more complex video editing programs. Visual effects are provided, and despite
| it being a little strange to work with at first, the code is very stable to
| use.
|
| What makes this a must-have application?
|
| Simplicity and speed. I love alternatives like Cinelerra. But for most
| people, this is too much. And unlike Kdenlive, which spends more time
| crashing than working, KINO gives anyone the ability to edit video easily and
| without worrying about their application crashing.
