I open this screencast (and I love to watch screencasts before trying the demo). And I see it is 10 minutes long, it has no chapter markers and I don’tknow which parts I can skip to really only see what I am interested in.
So let me just adjust the playback speed! That would be so cool! Whenever I think it’s interesting I just slow down the video speed (if I have not yet gotten used to the speed :-)).
Just give it to me I am an information junkie, but I need to consume faster, so I can consum more!

I am using Desktop Manager since the beginning, and it is just great. It handles everything: X11, Exposé, the Dock and everything just as I would expect it. It doesn’t show any unexpected bahviour as many of the other virtual desktop managers do.

Now I start having wishes of what I would like to have additionally. Since my PowerBook is my tool for everything I am also mixing work and private very much on it. I want my desktop manager to know when I am in a business environment (by detecting the network location(s)) and turning on/off applications or even switching between entire sets of virtual desktops. That would be cool. When I go home and I open my laptop, it connects to my home network it should automatically detect that and turn off all the business stuff, e.g. the TimeLog tool, etc. and it should turn on my NewsFeed reader, the IRC client and so on.
A first step might be adding rows of screens to the Desktop Manager, that would already help a lot. I would simply have a row of virtual screens that contains all the private apps and another with all the business stuff.

Well I downloaded the source, may be I get do dive into the code some day …
