From ArsTechnica:

The KDE development community has released version 4.7 of the KDE software collection and Plasma. The update brings a number of noteworthy improvements to the open source desktop environment.

KDE's Plasma desktop shell allow users to create separate groupings of Plasmoid widgets that they can switch through as needed. This feature got a major overhaul in version 4.5 last year, with the introduction of the new Activities system. The developers ditched the fragile zooming interface mechanism in favor of a simpler and more streamlined approach that made Activities practical to use.
