In Mac OSX Finder, this view displays the hierarchy of the file system in a series of left-to-right panes: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X_Tiger/Using_the_Finder#Column_View

I find it terribly useful when you have a deep structured directory hierarchy, especially when you want to move a file several levels up.

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:

pidgin works differently in xp and ubuntu in XP it does auto login but in ubuntu it doesnt please correct this.

Place bookmark for this brainstorm site in Firefox bookmark folder "Ubuntu and Free Software links". This will bring more people and more ideas.

I would like to see faster package installation and upgrades.

On my system, it actually takes less time to download the updates, than it does to install them.

openSUSE 11.0 made package installation 743% faster. Lets see if we can do the same?
