Gloobus and CoverGloobus

[xp1ode]

For all those that were waiting for quickview for linux, is finally here. It looks great, and with the new updates coming this is something that is a must for almost all linux desktops. You can also check out gloobus which is just a now playing widget, but so far is the best i have tried. Enjoy...

Gloobus

That's a pretty sweet looking addon for nautilus.

Already saw it on a friend's laptop. It's pretty cool although I don't know why the linux guys can't come up with something original. Gnome-Shell is a good start :)

[xp1ode]

Some cool updates and a new page for the code. Check it out here.

You can install it (compile it) now if you wish: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/02/how-to-install-gloobus-flow-clutter.html#more

I'll wait for a ppa myself.

Sweet. It works with PDFs. This was a 'killer' feature I wish I'd still have a Mac for. Now, w/ a shiny new desktop system, I'm going to be backing up everything in the coming weeks 90% over to some 'Nix. No more need for OSX. ;)

I can't get this to work on Ubuntu. Hit space and nothing happens.
