Desktop Will Now be Known as BumpTop
It will completely change the way we look and using our desktop.
Bump top turns the desktop into a three-dimensional space, users can arrange things more naturally and creatively. They can pile things up, just like they can on a physical desk.
And the big news is that big daddy Google has acquired this wonderful application today, so chances are that soon you will see 3D facelift to Android phones or may be we will see 3D desktop interface in Chrome Plateform.
BumpTop launched its first productabout a year ago. The idea, as founder and chief executive Anand Agarawala described it during a talk at the 2007 TED conference, was to do away with the “same old crap” found in the layout of both the Windows and Mac operating systems.
This is how my Desktop look with BumpTop
Here is founder Anand Agarawala presents BumpTop, a user interface that takes the usual desktop metaphor to a glorious, 3-D extreme, transforming file navigation into a freewheeling playground of crumpled documents and clipping-covered “walls.”

I’ve used this before, but later on I change back due to some reason. Its good ot hear that bumptop is acquired by google
Trust Google to acquire this technology. I love the 3D space that BumpTop gives you to have your virtual office / entertainment / playroom environment in. It is definitely a step up from the flat desktop space we have at present. How difficult will it be for other operating systems to copy though. Surely Microsoft, Apple, Ubuntu and other developers will merely copy it, much like Microsoft copied Apple’s graphic user interface?
Wow, what can be cooler than that? Hope to see Google Chrome OS to be 3D.
Bump Top seems really cool
. Great that Google is acquiring it.
This is interesting, though I hope it can be compatible with most computers.
Look really cool app to give desktop some refresh air however it will take some more system resource than usual.
