Just saw this new enhanced stuff in ubuntu-TV's unity:

I hope some of that stuff makes it to normal unity.

We can only hope. Unity has a lot of potential, but that is all it is at this point. Tons of people are envisioning beautiful things that could be implemented, but we are consistently disappointed that the options that Ubuntu devs take are nothing close to what we expect from a 2012 OS. And this is hypocritical coming from a non-dev, i know, but I am just waiting for Unity to actually get some real meat to it. I am just praying that one morning I will wake up and unity will have an update that actually gives us a UI that makes us feel awesome for using it.

to me lenses have the potential to be much more than they are now.

they could even have their API expanded and become apps in their own merit (unity exclusives, differentiators and very well integrated). Of course since lenses are optional they are not forced upon anyone either.


Would be cool to see what kind of "app-lenses" (like that cool "music-player-lens" mockup) people come up with (app-lens showdown!). :)

Maybe in like a year we could see something like this start appearing.

This is an excellent design mockup by Fredrico Mendes Araujo if you guys haven't seen it yet. It is a few months old, but we NEED something like this to add the 'spice' to get people to truely adopt and see Ubuntu as a legitimate alternative. As Mac OS X has shown...sexy and stable is what the consumer market wants.
