Bumptop in my PC
It’s been a while since I’ve really done anything radical on my computer.
I was initially thinking of just getting a new wallpaper. But I was led to this freeware that gives your desktop a new look. So I found Bumptop. Just to give you an idea what it is, think of a 3D desktop. And it’s also intuitive. I’ve been using it for sometime now and it’s a welcome break from the boring and disorganized desktop of mine.
You can watch this quick review on YouTube or you can start playing with it.
Okay, let me say it, it’s a cool way of organizing your desktop especially if you’re as disorganized as me. And did I say that it also comes with different themes?
Do you have similar discoveries? Let me know.

Thanks Dondi, Jim.
Thanks for dropping by. Dondi I’m sure there were a lot of innovations back then that are making a comeback today.
Jim, if you’re as screenburned as me, you’ll find this as a welcome change, hehe

Pretty nifty app there! If you’re using ubuntu (and other linux flavors), you may also want to try out Beryl(Now known as Compiz) if you’re really into desktop blings.
here’s a very good example of it in action:

Being an ubuntu fan myself, i’ve used it before and yes it does work like how you see them in the videos. You can select and choose various effects for different events like closing of applications, moving of windows, etc. Whether the effects are just for showing off or for productivity - it’s all up to you!
