=== File System ===

I love the Journal function. It's great. But it's near impossible to store and find files in Sugar, and name/locate files on other devices. We need a drag & drop system, and the ability to move files between storage devices easily. Give people the choice of either (Journal is very handy to track activity and, similar to the _open recent_ function in many OS X/Windows apps, lets you find recent stuff easily. I think this needs to be a new icon on the home view, alongside journal, and when you access it, or Journal, it's intuitive and easy to move between either view.

=== Sugarize Firefox ===

* I use a "sugar coated" version of SeaMonkey; which is a full suite (browser, email, etc). Might Seamonkey be a better option due to its (as I understand) smaller footprint & greate number of options? -- [[User:AuntiMame]] 22 May 2008 16:05

:Can this be added to an applications page on this Wiki? We should add a new item under Using Sugar called Software & Activities where we can compile a list of all available applications, installation instructions, and links to download.

* The Sugar Browser is actually based on the Firefox guts (xulrunner), but the UI has been developed for Sugar. You can find more details [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Browse#Summary here.] There have been many requests, like yours, to improve it by supporting more features that "normal" browsers have. I agree that tabs and bookmarks would be welcome additions and useful for children. -- [[User:Ridderman|Ridderman]] 20:53, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
