I made a custom desktop background this weekend modeled after a Star Trek computer interface.
It has quite a few interactive elements such as:
-time
-date
-weather (including: temperature, humidity, general condition, and tomorrow's condition)
-ip addresses and wireless network name
-RAM, CUP, and uptime stats
-top system processes
and finally
-an interactive iTunes song display with controls
The flickr page has detailed instructions, so those of you who know your way around a computer should be able to make similar interactive desktops (be creative and use a theme that you like, don't be turned off by my Star Trek geekiness!).

Also, THE NEW STAR TREK MOVIE COMES OUT IN 15 DAYS!
