linuxedge.org— New UI of Beagle (Desktop Search for Linux) has finally arrived. Looks great (IMHO, better than Spotlight on OSX)! Hopefully should arrive in Beagle 0.1.5

I run Beagle in Gentoo and my biggest issue with it is the lack of support for Mozilla Mail and that their extension is Firefox only (incompatible with the Mozilla Suite/SeaMonkey). Honestly, I could care less what it looks like as long as it's functional.
"Why is everything linux always so damn ugly? It looks like windows 3.1. Give me windowblinds for linux please :("So change the icons, window border, controls, theme, font, wallpaper, colors, etc. Unlike Windows, you can actually trick out everything for free without extra software. If you find Linux to look ugly than change it. The tools are there for you to use.
has the functionality, but looks like crap. Why do people even make gtk apps? They are all grey and crappy looking, plus i hate that Add button with a big plus sign next to it. Ugh.
"(IMHO, better than Spotlight on OSX)"Wow, would never have expected a Linux user would entice the formula...OSS-Clone-X of Famous-Product-Y on Linux is better than it is on Famous-Operating-System-Z
