00:00:00.667 --> 00:00:06.435
(OMG! Ubuntu! omgubntu.co.uk)

00:00:06.435 --> 00:00:10.872
(Ubuntu 12.10 Introduces Many New Features)
[Off voice] The release of Ubuntu 10.12 brings a range of new features to the Ubuntu desktop.

00:00:10.872 --> 00:00:13.532
But what are some of the best you'll be looking out for?

00:00:13.532 --> 00:00:16.640
We're here with a quick Top 10 rundown.

00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:19.905
(#10 - Web Apps - Blurring Web and Desktop)
Who said that the Web and the desktop have to be separate?

00:00:19.905 --> 00:00:23.156
Ubuntu’s new Web App feature integrates over 30 popular websites

00:00:23.156 --> 00:00:25.871
with the various features of the unity desktop,

00:00:25.871 --> 00:00:28.042
from social networks in the messaging menu,

00:00:28.042 --> 00:00:30.485
mailing user lots on the launcher

00:00:30.485 --> 00:00:33.447
to control music websites directly from the sound menu.

00:00:33.447 --> 00:00:40.873
(#9 - Unity Previews - Slick Animated App & File Previews)
Applications, files and more can now be created directly in the Dash with a right click.

00:00:40.873 --> 00:00:43.731
Depending on the type of app and file you're previewing,

00:00:43.731 --> 00:00:46.748
you'll see different options or preview styles.

00:00:46.748 --> 00:00:50.461
For example, previewing music gives you a nifty in-Dash previewing music player.

00:00:50.461 --> 00:00:59.479
(#8 Preview App Installs: Bypass the Ubuntu Software Center)
As a gift to the lazy amongst us, previews also allow us to install free applications

00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:03.765
without using the Ubuntu software center.

00:01:03.765 --> 00:01:06.916
(#7 Online Accounts - Centralises Your Social Connections)
Ubunto 12.10 Online Accounts feature

00:01:06.916 --> 00:01:10.419
takes the hassle out of setting out IM clients, e-mail clients and so on.

00:01:10.419 --> 00:01:13.363
You just add your account once, and then you're done.

00:01:13.363 --> 00:01:18.451
(#7 Online Accounts - Works with Many Desktop Apps)
Up in a seconds you're hooking (?) to your online accounts.

00:01:18.451 --> 00:01:20.884
Data include the new photo lens that lets you preview and filter photos from your social networks,

00:01:20.884 --> 00:01:22.858
chat app Empathy, social client Tweeter and the photo manager shows out

00:01:22.858 --> 00:01:30.984
which lets you publish photos on Facebook, Picasa and more.

00:01:30.984 --> 00:01:34.832
(#6 Encryption - Secure Your Ubuntu Install)
We all appreciate security

00:01:34.832 --> 00:01:38.017
and those who are particularly security-conscious will appreciate the new encryption features

00:01:38.017 --> 00:01:42.080
built into Ubuntu's installer.

00:01:42.080 --> 00:01:47.733
(#Remote Login - Connect to Remote Desktop Sessions)
Another power-user feature making an appearance

00:01:47.733 --> 00:01:51.566
is the ability to login to remote desktops directly from the login screen.

00:01:51.566 --> 00:01:54.328
This is why, by adding the remote desktop data to your open one Singe Sign On account,

00:01:54.328 --> 00:02:01.298
which you then login with, using the login screen, to gain access to your remote desktop connections.

00:02:01.298 --> 00:02:04.663
(#4 Window Management - Exit Apps Using the Spread)
As a boon for those who use lots of apps,

00:02:04.663 --> 00:02:08.177
windows can now be closed directly from the Applications Spread.

00:02:08.177 --> 00:02:11.330
(#3 Ubuntu One Updates - New Sync Menu)
Ubuntu One users will appreciate the new dedicated sync menu,

00:02:11.330 --> 00:02:14.240
along with the file searching and sharing features present in the desktop app.

00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:21.444
(#Shopping Lens: Amazon Product Suggestion)
To help fund Ubuntu,

00:02:21.444 --> 00:02:24.177
Amazon shopping suggestions appear as users open the dash.

00:02:24.177 --> 00:02:27.298
For each item you buy from this, a small percentage will go to Ubuntu.

00:02:27.298 --> 00:02:29.133
(#2 Shopping Lens - Can Be switched Off)
Don't like it? Don't worry.

00:02:29.133 --> 00:02:31.345
Just flip the off switch in the Privacy settings.

00:02:31.345 --> 00:02:35.397
for a product free dash searching.

00:02:35.397 --> 00:02:38.210
(#2 - Shopping Lens - Privacy Policy Link)
For more information on the feature,

00:02:38.210 --> 00:02:40.855
just click the Legal link on the dash to read Canonical's privacy policy.

00:02:40.855 --> 00:02:43.637
Finally, let's not overlook
(#1 The Tweeks - Making Ubuntu Prettier)

00:02:43.637 --> 00:02:46.397
the small changes made to Ubuntu's default theme.

00:02:46.397 --> 00:02:49.007
These include new switches, hover/behavior states (?), buttons, widgets styles/switch installs (?)

00:02:49.007 --> 00:02:51.485
and animations for minimizing applications,

00:02:51.485 --> 00:02:55.129
and a dozen or so new wall papers to choose from.

00:02:55.129 --> 99:59:59.999
