what i see is mostlya space of widget arranged in a particular layout. very similar variation to 3 containments we already had, 2 of which in QML already, the netbook "newspaper", the active default containment, the active "widget strip" there are small differences in look/behavior, but those are details. (biggest difference from the "widget strip" is that is possible to have more than one widget per column, a feature i would like to have in it) basically is another reimagination of the same old concept :p as for their widgets per se, maybe would be even possible to directly support them, since i see they are written in html, and we have a basic support for that (would need package format + eventual extra api binded to the javascript available to the html part) > Also, if you stroll down on that url you will see three screenshots > with "morning", "work" and "evening".
