Install a cool looking mac dock in Linux.

Well there are a number of applications that provide a dock with an awesome looking GUI and widgets.

Some of them are:

1. GLX Cairo Dock:
Cairo-Dock is a desktop interface that takes the shape of docks, desklets, panel, etc
It is designed to be light, fast and customizable, and is desktop-agnostic.
It has a powerful DBus interface, to be controlled from a terminal or another application.
Features can be added by plug-ins or applets, and applets can be written in C or in any language.
Most actions can be done from keyboard.
Cairo-Dock is a pretty, fast and customizable desktop interface. You can see it as a good alternative/addition to Unity, Gnome-Shell, Xfce-panel, KDE-panel, etc.
