Shellscape.org/nubs/ - Organize Your Desktop

Translate Into:

What it does

Ever heard of Sticky Windows for Mac? Now there’s a Sticky Windows for Windows called Nubs. It does basically the same thing—screen space organization with theme-able tabs—except it works on Windows based systems only with .NET 2.0 capabilities. It’s great if you’ve got a messy desktop full of necessary, but cluttering inactive and active windows. Nubs lets you hide those inactive windows away using tabs (it’s much like cleaning your room by cramming everything you can under the bed). You can title the tabs and customize them as you like. Choose from a variety of themes or make your own. Nubs lets you maximize your entire screen or screens.

In their own words

“Nubs is an application for Windows similar to Sticky Windows (Mac OSX). Nubs is designed to maximize window management and organization with stylish and themeable tabs. It only takes a few seconds to leave, and is painless to use.”

Why it might be a killer

Nubs is a nice organizing tool for Windows. It makes the UI much friendlier than it is and lets you keep your cluttered screentop in shape.

Some questions

Will Windows users take to using Nubs? Has Nubs got all the bugs out of it?
