Changes

I imagine the Home view becoming tightly integrated with the Journal through the Journal favorites as Walter suggests.

The 'List' Home view should be replaced by a Journal icon that would take the learner to an "un-favorited" filter in the Journal view of the currently-selected Home group.  Where "Home group" would be the alternate views such as, School, Games, Music, Photos, etc., created by new Journal tagging features.  (The default Home view, would continue to be the favorite list of installed Activities.)

A sub-row of Home group icons (which would instantly reveal on hover) would be provided on the Home view Frame button palette to allow the learner to jump to alternate Favorite views.  The Favorites Home view button would gain the same sub-row palette, and the alternate view patterns would be a sub-palette that would reveal only on a persistent hover or right-mouse button click.

: Amend the "un-favorited" filter to include only learner-tagged objects/events. Then we could extend the Journal concept to My Journal and Others' Journals (some higher level filter with appropriate colors and names).  This would accommodate shared Journals and the core content that came with the Sugar image.  --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 17:52, 21 July 2010 (EDT)
