Compiz: From my first contacts with distribution Ubuntu I was excited by the fact that everyone can shape it as they wish according to their needs and aesthetics.
To make the desktop, or desktops as he wants (yes, multiple desktops have always existed in Linux).
A mode that used to drive me crazy (and still use it) is the "Cube" in Ubuntu. No it has nothing to do with the Transformers cube, although it really does functional it's a Transformer!
For those who did not understand, it is a function that allows us to switch to another desktop or tab to better sort our tasks and bring them back to the "scene" faster.
We can just do it in a more spectacular way, let's say it!
In addition to these two features I depict, there are dozens more that you can discover by yourself after installing the following packages!
Install the Compiz Config Settings Manager
sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-managersudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-plugins compiz-plugins-extra
Then we open it
And we will see Compiz Manager.
As you will see there are more than enough functions for all tastes! You can make your closing windows burn, or look like water running, jumping and much more that cannot be explained in one article!
