Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Social Desktop idea describes how online communities and web collaborations can be integrated into desktop environments such as KDE and GNOME and how they could directly accessed by desktop applications such as a Plasmoids. A core idea of the Social Desktop is to connect and to improve the communication in the free software community between the user. Its main pillars are user generated contents such as applications, artwork, an event database and a common knowledge base. Integrating this kind of information and data to the desktop and to be accessible for everyone is the main goal of the initiators. The idea was presented for the first time on Akademy 2008 by Frank Karlitschek.
