GeoShell

      No comments   
GeoShell is an amazing minimalistic Windows shell replacement. No more stupid taskbar. Just about everything can be keyboard shortcutted. I've set it up so my desktop is basically just a wallpaper. The main keys I use are alt-shift-F for task switcher and alt-shift-S for my customized start menu. I'm using the geoXWM plugin to use virtual desktops like in most Linux window managers.

So happy. My efficiency: up 25%, productivity: -300%. I waste so much time mucking around with my UI.
