Might be worth checking out, especially if you are looking for a better way to organize your multiple windows while working, without having to rely on that taskbar at the bottom.

Instead of a desktop they should call it a globetop.

Unless it's been significantly improved since the last time I saw news about this app (and I don't see anything on that site saying it has been), it sucks.  It is NOT a 3D interface to everything you do, it's more of a 3D alt-tab replacement.  It just screenshots every app you have open, and gives you a 3D interface to choose what apps to work with.  To actually interact with an application, you go back to regular windows mode.

I can't find the old thread that had references to maybe a half-dozen "3D desktop" demos and betas.

This is close enough.

Looks like YouTube has quite a few videos showing these neato things:

And some are pretty weird, like the idea has promise but they are not really demonstrating its benefits very well, e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qlhP_Ovp8A
