Ubuntu Vibes posted screenshots from the improved Unity interface of Ubuntu 11.10

Unity Interface has just received a massive overhaul and the dash looks better than ever. Applications and Files Lenses on the launcher have been removed and are now integrated into the dash only. A new Music Lens has also been introduced for quickly searching and browsing your favorite artists.

The Ubuntu Button on top left corner has been removed and a new big Ubuntu orb on the launcher now activates the main dash menu. Active blur option for the dash is turned on by default now giving it a really sleek and polished look. Application title, window controls and app menu on top panel now show all the way to the left.

Though all these are great improvements, the unity interface is extremely difficult to use at the moment as it is extremely slow and buggy. Many times clicking on categories does not work at all. This is quite visible in video below but more improvements will be made overtime.
