Bumptop to fulfill Windows 7 touchscreen purpose
Nearly three years ago, a video demo of a new desktop user interface, the BumpTop, captivated YouTube viewers. A year later the creator, Anand Agarawala, was called to the august TED conference to present. Now the BumpTop software is here, ready for you and your Windows PC. I gave it a spin.
The software allows you to bump and toss weighted objects across the desktop and organize them into folders or piles the way you would on your real-world desk. It also includes the ability to pan and zoom on images with all the gesture support you'd expect. While a touchscreen (multi-touch supported when Windows 7 ships) display provides a more natural interface, Bumptop also works with a mouse. Check the video after the break -- then hit up the download link below which we suspect you'll be frantically searching for after the video ends. Granted, we we don't want to spend our days with arms outstretched at "work" in front of a touchsceen PC anymore than you, but software like this could be useful on our lesser used, kitchen PCs.

BumpTop lets you visually connect with your desktop. Pin important files or sticky notes to your wall so you don't forget them. And with BumpTop, more frequently used files get bigger and heavier so you can't find them easily.

BumpTop lets your style dictate the look and feel of your desktop. With dozens of themes to choose from, you can find the one for you. Serene blue or firely flames, change your desktop to suit your moods.
