Get Windows 7 like Taskbar in Ubuntu with Talika

With Talika Gnome Panel Applet, you can get a Windows 7 like taskbar in Ubuntu. It is a lightweight alternative to the default window manager in Ubuntu and it supports window previews.

Features:

• 'Icons Only' Taskbar
• Window Previews
• Grouping of similar windows
• Show pin option for pinnable apps
• Supports pinning via drag and drop
• Option to show tasks from multiple monitors
• Option to close group with middle click
• Option to show preview on multiple windows only
• Pinining support for openoffice & some wine apps (like picasa)
• Choose custom icon for launcher
• Option to use monochrome icons
• Customizable icon sizes, space between icons and icon highlight color

Probably the most important feature about Talika is that it is really lightweight (6 mb in my case with 5 icons on applet) and would be ideal choice for low end machines.
