Brilliant Brainstorms is a weekly summary of some of the best/most interesting brainstorms from the Ubuntu Brainstorm site.

It is very easy to make a window take up the entire screen, but what if you to have a similar shortcut for putting it in a certain place on the screen, say the left half. Regions would solve this problem. (I submitted this idea.)

There may already be a way to resize Wubi installs, but it needs to be easy. If Wubi is going to be a way of letting people wade into Ubuntu slowly, it needs to be possible to slowly grow the size of your install and, eventually, transition to a regular install.

As netbooks grow in popularity, it is important to make it easy for users to switch their OSs. Right now, this can be challenging, due to the lack of CD drives. All that has to be done is provide an easy way to make a LiveUSB drive or LiveSD card.

I am not at all convinced that touch-screen is the future of desktop computing, but there are starting to be some touch-screen machines out there, so ensuring that Ubuntu supports them well could be important, if they catch on.
