Nautilus getting Zeitgeist love…

So a couple of days ago I promised a Nautilus + Zeitgeist hack… Thanks to Randy it is reality (and I am not a liar)…It is just a proof of concept, we will take time next week to look into details and make things really shiny… Read his blog for more info

Oh yeah here is the sexy stuff if you are to lazy to click and read his blog…

Nice! Question is, is it duplicated effort with the Zeitgeist-filesystem project?

Would it be possible to exclude certain folders contents from being tracked, like porn

That’s quite good and I look forward to using it. OS X’s similar feature in the Finder can be very useful, and I don’t say that to compare but to encourage. Why wasn’t this idea done from the start?

And where’s your menu-bar?

I am so happy this is becoming reality! ^_^

Awesome!

One suggestion: it may be somewhat confusing to the user which file they accessed when the accessed it through the “Commonly Accessed” folder, or the “Today” etc folders. It would be nice if when an item in those folders is selected, somewhere in the UI the path to that file is displayed. This would also be useful if a user has files with the same name in different folders, which are then both modified in the same date or just as frequently.

Keep up the awesome work! I think Nautilus integration is much better than Shell integration, as I don’t really want to see my list of frequently accessed files all the time …

Hopefully there is an option to right click on the file and open the folder where it resides in. This let you quickly get to the project area so quickly.

It would be cool if Nautilus could access files using semantic data that (I think) Zeitgeist also handles.
