A Closer Look at Ubuntu Unity

Here's another video with impressions of the new Unity user interface in Ubuntu Netbook Edition 10.10 showing the quite radical changes compared to the UI in version 10.04. There is a new launcher on the left for quick access to you favorite applications, a workspaces feature for separating running applications, and applications and files panes displaying recently and most used items.

Version 10.10 of the Ubuntu Netbook Edition looks good and usable, but so did the previous 10.04 LTS release and whether this new version is an improvement compared to its predecessor is up for debate. Andrew of WebUpd8, who created this video, is certainly not the only person who doesn't like Unity, so you probably better test drive it yourself before doing an upgrade.
