The activites are split up by tasks.  Each one has one or more
folderviews pointing to folders associated with that task, a
quicklaunch with applications related to that task, and generally a
few widgets useful for that task

Main - basic widgets including weather, time, and so on.  Common
applications and the home and documents folders.  Uses the weather
wallpaper.
Math - technical widgets including qalculate, unit convertor, dice
(set to randomly generate 8-bit random numbers), binary clock, and
SOHO explorer.  Includes mathematics and programming applications, and
show a samba folder on a computer used for experiments and another
with local software development folder.  Uses the mandelbrot
wallpaper.
Writing - dictionary, character map, and translator.  LibreOffice and
Calligra applications with my Documents folder.  Uses a wallpaper with
a closeup of a keyboard.
Web - Web browser and wikipedia widgets.  Firefox and rekonq
applications with my Downloads folder.  Uses the marble wallpaper.
Graphics - Slideshow, color picker, and blackboard widgets.  Gimp,
inkscape, krita, and scribus with my picture folder.  Uses a picture
of paintbrushes for a wallpaper.

I have a panel at the top with the activity tabs widget so I can
quickly switch between them.
