Though this technology isn't incredibly new (the
video is dated June of 2006, and OSNews
has covered it before), it's still not publicly available; however, it'll supposedly have a beta out for subscribers to test someday. Branded
"BumpTop," this new interface builds off of the idea of organization done on traditional desktops-- I mean the wooden, metal, or glass ones. People naturally organize papers and other items into piles that make sense to their own ways of thinking. This kind of organization is limited on operating systems today, but BumpTop makes an old idea new by turning your virtual desktop a little more real.

I really like this little program and look forward to trying to push more productivity out of it. I've always found the current desktop metaphor to be quite lacking.
