Hidden Linux : Learning to love KDE 4 (part II)
,----[ Quote ]
| The main difference between KDE 3 and KDE 4
| is that the former is fixed and static
| while the latter is dynamic and
| interactive. For a trivial example of that
| go to System Settings / Desktop / All
| Effects and activate Snow. Now hitting the
| Meta+Ctrl+F12 keys (or Win+Ctrl+F12) will
| fill your desktop with falling snowflakes.
|
| [...]
|
| In short, Plasma and KDE 4 allow you to
| build your own interactive desktop. If that
| seems a little daunting, check out what
| others have done ...

OpenDesktop Community Choose Winners of Desktop Contest
,----[ Quote ]
| About-information from developer profiles,
| desktop searches in online forums, an
| interface library and update notification
| of web page content bring the concept of a
| social desktop a step closer to reality.
|
| [...]
|
| This helps in presenting Free Software apps
| as more "human", because it shows (through
| their profiles) that there's real people
| working on the program.'' His prize is a
| Inspiron 10v notebook from Dell with
| Ubuntu. The extended AboutDialog is already
| included in Amarok 2.2.

KDE Social Desktop Contest: Freeing the Web
,----[ Quote ]
| With this goal, Karlitschek announced the
| contest on June 17. Prizes were a netbook
| from Dell for the winner and a one terabyte
| hard drive for the runner up, and $50 and
| $30 Amazon gift certificates for third and
| fourth place. Judging was done by Seigo and
| Karlitschek, and -- partly to emphasize
| that the idea was not confined to KDE --
| Luis Villa of the GNOME project and
| Alexander Colorado of OpenOffice.org.

KDE 4
,----[ Quote ]
| I absolutely love KDE 4. There is so much new, but
| everything that is different feels intuit. My very
| favorite feature is, this far, the device notifying
| plasmoid. Not having to show the desktop to mount, open
| or unmount my USB-stick is just - smart and intuit.

Master Dolphin in KDE 4
,----[ Quote ]
| Ultimately Dolphin is a preference, and some will still
| prefer the more powerful Konqueror. Others will
| appreciate have a file manager separate from their
| browser. There are many other features to try with
| Dolphin. Experiment and try new things. You might be
| pleasantly surprised.
