That sounds very interesting.
It would be great if the UI development could be accessible to a wider
community with a more graphical focus.
Also, this sounds more flexible to issues such as switching from
landscape to portrait as the apps could be doing their needed reshuffle
in a common
I have attached the webstats for the mock up page.
In a very simplistic fashion, this gives data about user interaction and
experience.
If development of any UI could happen transparently on the web in the
form of an advanced, fully usable dashboard (such as my mock up would
like to be), I can
Hats off to you for your attention to detail. If case nobody noticed, the
pin icon does actually work in this last version of the mock up. This means
every original screen has been duplicated to the two possible states of the
pin.
One little detail bugs me. In this interaction model, the maximize
Yes - the minimise and maximise buttons are redundant in this model, so
you can put your hat back on :D
Several (unmaximised) windows are a tricky detail and has been touched
on in this thread already:

I think it will be possible. Something like
For ease of use (Fitt's Law) and semantic consistency, i would only suggest
to keep shape, position and size of the Ubuntu button on the top left corner
of the screen the same on all pages featuring it.
Thx for the great work! I like the way the colors are, only thing i noticed
was the green color
Michael,
I have to start by giving the caveat that I'm neither a UNR user, nor an
Ubuntu dev, so if my opinions seem uninformed... that's because they are.
:)
Your OS X-like dashboard concept for the calculator is interesting, but as
an occasional Mac user, I always disliked the fact that the
I agree with the fact that unity doesn't use space efficiently by presenting
the user with a black desktop, and as a solution, I proposed a widget layer
instead of a traditional desktop. For such a layer,
an HTML/CSS/JS UI layer would be nice.
And luckily, this already exists! See GNOME
I have updated the MockUp with consideration to the comments received.
Thanks to all.

1: The side menu can now be pinned
2: the colours and graphics have been reduced to a much more conceptual
level. If something is 'on' it is green, 'off' is white
I have put up an interactive mock up of some of the ways I feel Unity
can evolve here:

Give each screen a bit of time to cache - it is just linked html.
The key features are:
* Fully navigable by mousepad tap (therefore screen touch)

Now that's what i call a mockup!!
Since it is interaction design we
Beautiful demo!
I miss the ability to close several applications with the X button. That
could be alleviated by showing the window toolbar in the quickaccess view
[1]. That would also show the windicators, when they are implemented.
Also when one of the main menus [2][3][4] is open, clicking on

yeah, like in GNOME Shell..
Fantastic mockup Michael. :) I can only echo the kudos being given by the
others.
One question: In this scenario of expose mode, maximized window, and
nothing else, how will smaller windowed applicatoins like the Calculator be
handled? In Meerkat I notice that the Calculator cannot even be
Some great ideas are emerging:

A tricky one!
I have the beginning of an idea for this in a sketch I posted one thread
down. It could lie on the desktop wall, the same as the other
'background apps' are. When it gets the focus it renders above
everything else. Clicking anywhere outside of the calculator minimises
