There are some things in compiz that I simply love, and that make
_my_ life in front of a desktop easier.
a) no redraw on window expose/move. This is simply the biggest win of
them all.
b) _slight_ transparency on window movement. Makes it easier to see
where you are going.
c) _slight_ reducion in saturation/brightness for windows in the background.
I also think that expo is kind of neat (show all desktops at once and
drag windows across them), as is Expose.
I also have desktops-on-a-cube and some other things enabled, but that's
just eyecandy.
Oh, and fading non-responding applications to black-and-white is neat,
too.
