“Before you start, ask yourself, what are the primary
tasks that you use your computer for? Of course, just about all of
us use it to access the internet. But, what else? If your answer is
“not much else”, then stop right here. No need to read
any further. Desktop activities are not for you. You will be
perfectly happy without them. However, if your answer includes a
few other tasks, then you may find that spending a few minutes
configuring some desktop activities is a great way to improve your
productivity and of making your use of the computer more enjoyable.“Now that you have though about it a bit, lets start with just
one or two activities. You can add more latter once you understand
the concept and your needs better. To add an activity we need to
first Unlock the Widgets and then Zoom out of the default
desktop/activity. Both of those options are reachable through the
plasma logo in the upper right corner of the desktop (A.K.A.
“the cashew”).”
