Ah, thanks Luke! I found
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopExperienceTeam/ApplicationIndicators
which gives a good description of these indicators. I also saw several
pages with links to useful indicators. Do I just need to install the
indicator for the application I'm interested in (Tomboy, Ubuntu One,
Glipper, ...) and they'll show up and I'll be able to access them with
Windows+s and/or Windows+m? Any idea why Vinux doesn't include any of
these? I'll also send this message over to the Vinux support list.
