Yet another webtop - which kind of looks like a Finder.
Coolio things happening in the Home and Living room.
LiveJournal ups the ante and adds voice to social networking.

We both remember Helix for the Mac, which tried this. My favorite Helix moment was getting a demo at a trade show of how simple it was to create a visual formula. After pulling down a “Subtraction” tile, and then drawing arrows from one number and another number into the input areas, and then drawing an arrow from this contraption to the result tile, the sales guy typed in the name of the whole thing. Guess what he named it? Sales-Cost=Profit.
