Hi,

One thing we've been working on lately here on the Mugshot team is 
prototyping part of what an "online desktop" would be.
For more information about the ideas behind the project, see Havoc's 
blog entry:

If you'd like to try out the Big Board mentioned in that entry, see this 
wiki page:

http://developer.mugshot.org/wiki/Big_Board

There are Fedora Core 6 RPMs available, with instructions on the page.  
You can also compile/install from source
of course.  I'm presently working on submitting some of the prerequisite 
RPMs to Fedora
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=235741), if 
someone out there is an RPM expert and could
take a look at the pacakges that would rock.

Let us know what you think!

One important known bug worth mentioning here is currently it doesn't 
work correctly with Compiz:
