After
a long time, i am blogging through this post.
So...I
am running ubuntu since 2010(from version 10.04) so after 2 years it
was totally awesome experience with ubuntu.
In
newer Ubuntu(Ubuntu after v11.04) , It introduced new Unity UI for
rich desktop experience.
GNOME
2.X was used in Older ubuntu and Fedora is using GNOME shell(after
version 15).
So, I
have seen many post related comparison of older GNOME with Unity and
Unity vs GNOME Shell. GNOME Shell and Unity both look like a same but
both have its own functionalities.
But As
per my experience, Unity is awesome thing and it increases the
productivity. Lets see how...
OLD
WAY OF GNOME:
Suppose
I want to run open office then I will go into application menu and
then office then will run any open office application after that I found that
lets check the mail and I will go to again Application menu then
Internet then Thunderbird or any email client. In short, Each and every time
I have to shift from keyboard to track pad(touch pad).
LETS
SEE NEW WAY :
Above
task can be done in easy way with latest ubuntu.
SUPER+
Libre... Navigate-> ENTER
SUPER+Thun..Navigate->Enter (BEST WAY TO USE HUD IN UBUNTU 12.04 : ALT+ emai..-> ENTER)
ALT+cha..->
Enter (It will open chat application called empathy)
So,No time to go on track-pad (touch pad), Its simply awesome.
Now,
you can understand how Unity is useful then older GNOME .
Unity
is specially design for keyboard lovers and you are using linux so
sure you will be keyboard geek otherwise you wont try linux.
HUD IS ALSO FOR KEYBOARD GEEKS.
UPDATE:
If you want to see shortcuts on ubuntu 12.04 then press SUPER and
hold.
