Create and add PulseAudio Volume Control Applet for panel  
Written by swalko the 23 Apr 08 at 19:52. Category: Multimedia. Related to: Nothing/Others. New
In Hardy is in default installation integrated PulseAudio server. Most of applications are using PulseAudio. It will be very usable if will be created PulseAudio Volume Control applet similar to Volume Control applet. After left click on this applet user can see all audio streams named by applications (volume control for stream and icon for quick mute). Same applet is in Vista and for me it is the best Vista feature. Most of audio programs by muting stream from their gui completely mute alsa. This is not good, because i am watching tv in small window and if i want to watch video on web mus i completely close tv application. With this applet i click on it and temporaly mute tv application. Here is a picture of vista volume control http://jkontherun.blogs.com/jkontherun/images/voume_mixer.jpg. I think better will be if audio streams and their control are oriented horizontally.

Edit: here are mockups:

Add support for GoogleFS into Nautilus

It will be nice if we can simply add space from our google accounts into nautilus and used it transparently like other filesystems on computer.
