Multi-dimensional organization. X = spread of different simultaneous tasks, Y = sub-tasks. So, I've got a column for generic communication, chat. I have a column for development tools. I have a column for system monitors, or other utilities. It's not as strictly adhered as that, but that's the general idea I go to. I keep things very very fluid by making it really easy to switch workspaces, and to move windows between workspaces: 1. Mouse wheel on desktop (or with Ctrl+Alt if the desktop's not visible) switches workspaces. Horizontal scrolling moves between columns. 2. Mouse wheel on titlebars (or with Alt, if I want to be fast) moves windows between workspaces. The analogy here is that mouse events move a window: Dragging on the title bar moves it within the workspace, scrolling moves it between workspaces. Again, horizontal scroll -> columns -- Jeremy Nickurak -= Email/XMPP: jer...@nickurak.ca =-
