Give your Desktop a Mosaic Touch

Tabbed Widgets

Locked Desktop

Mosaic (previously known as Metro Home 2) is an application that brings Metro UI to your desktop. It is a set of live widgets that shows some content from the web or from your PC.
Mosaic supports WPF and HTML(5) widgets (it uses IE9 engine if it installed). HTML widgets are visible only in full screen mode 








(for technical reason).
Currently some widgets are just link 
to something (e.g. desktop or control panel) 
but in future they could get more functions.

There is one demo HTML widget - Today widget.
Mosaic is in alpha stage and can work unstable
